Two years ago Bill Dark showed me where several columbines could be found in Broadwater Hollow. Since they are my wife's favorites, Saturday evening that's where I headed. I found this one which I could frame against the dark shadows under a rock ledge and FINALLY got the wind to quit. Here's my result.

Very nice, Bruce, glad you got the wind to settle down!

The rich saturated colors really pop against the black bg Bruce. The columbines in my yard are just about ready to bloom too! Thanks for sharing.

Bruce,
These are one of my favorite flowers also. You've done a great job in capturing the delicate stamens.
Well done Bruce! Glad you got the shot you were looking for. It was great to meet you this weekend BTW. Karla

Well done, Bruce. I wasn't patient enough when I tried to shoot the columbine there at Broadwater -- the wind just didn't want to let up so I got up and shot the falls. Looking at this image makes me realize what a mistake that was. Really nice.
