Wood Sorrels

I have a pretty good crop of clover on the patio, and these have been showing off the last few days. This is from earlier this afternoon in breezy conditions. I framed it up and waited for a lull between gusts. I tried the Wimberley I, which works quite well for this sort of stuff, and the lens is great for close focusing, about 3 feet away here. Full height cropped to 4:3 from 3:2 original. Nothing fancy, just framing with the natural background.

7D2 100-400 @310, Wimberley I, ISO 400 1/125 f10 -1 1/3EV

Well put together, Bill, from the nicely blurred BG to the Sharp detail and color of the flowers. I wouldn't change a thing!
