Sunday Stills - Wildflowers

I fear I've gone a little overboard with this Sunday Stills challenge. New camera, dontchaknow...I need to sit down and thoroughly read the owner's manual....

Good ol' daisies




The thing I love most about wildflowers is the profusion of gentle color.







Here are three reasons I really need to understand my settings better....

1.

2.

3.


Wild parsnip, like gigantic Queen Anne's lace...

The little orange moth at the left was a bonus.


Daisy fleabane...I think.

I've got some wildflowers that come up every year at the side of my house. I enjoy them as much or more than all the other flowers. Did you see my "bonus days clock" in the side bar of blog? Today is 5000 days a day at a time
