Montpelier blue ?

Don't know the English name of this small blue flower but in French it is called the Montpelier bleu. Typical for the Ardech region in the south of France.

Nikon D70, Nikkor 75-300 mm, tripod, full frame.

Hi Jos,
I really like the diagonal composition. Nice colors and DOF, too.

I really like how the background works in this image - it could almlost stand on its own. The flowers are really great too!

Jos,

Congrats on pic of the week. This one really stood out from the crowd. It was the sharpness of the flowers against that softly blurred background. :toast: :toast:
