I found this Columbine growing inside the tree circle and seemed to find shelter there.

5d, 28-135mm w/macro, tripod.

Comments and critiques always welcome, and thanks for looking,

Morris

Yes Morris, my feeling is of a magic peaceful clearing in the deep forest. A photo full of atmosphere and mystery, that I love; and a beautiful outstanding flower.
Cheers.

Another stellar wild columbine. I like the natural BG very much. You did a great job isolating the flowers and timing the light.

Great nestled bloom Morris. I really like the crammed greenery look. Very nice.

Nice shot Morris. For some reason it reminds me of Christmas. Excellent natural vignette.

Beautiful find and an excellent pair! I love how the light highlights the bloom and it is different to see it with pine needles. I really like this! (Congrats on the sat shout out, btw!)
