Yellow Trout Lily
A yellow (more common) trout lily this time. Notice the heavier mottling on the leaves compared to the white version posted by Philip Schwarz below.

Nikon D70s, 1/90 sec, f6.7, ISO 200, 70 mm (105 mm in 35mm format)

Nice angle on this trout lily, Patrick. This image seems a bit desaturated to me. The stamens of the TLs I've seen are brick-red in color. I might also try a vertical comp to focus more on the flower itself.

This screams vertical!!!! Move in closer. I agree with Chuck and some work in layers might make this wok better.

These plants are not east you capture as sharp as you did. The are always moving!. Nice job on the sharpness.!.
