I need help with Identification. I found these in a ditch at my girlfriends ditch. Not sure what they are. Thanks in advance. Adjustments made in Nik software.

I like the image Todd, especially the point of view and the bg but I'm sorry I can't help with the ID.

It is similar to Dwarf Periwinkle (but I'm not sure). I like the colours and the contrast to BG. I wish an DOF improvement. Todd did you try with F9-11 instead of 3.5? By focusing at the bottom flower and using F 9 you would have nice DOF with sharp all three centers and a bit OOF the top part. :confused:

Very nice shot of these beautiful flowers, Todd! I go with Miros suggestions about the DOF and POF. I am pretty sure these are a Phlox species. :toast:
