My take on a coneflower from today after the rain stopped. Had a little bit of a tough time with wind but patience won.

Just a reminder to keep the victims, families and rescue workers from the Albert Pike Recreation Area flood that occurred this morning in your prayers.

I really like your point of focus and choice of dof here Matthew. Some fine elements and a very striking image.

Nice work all around Matt. Looks like the purple coneflower (as opposed to the pale purple)is starting its bloom.

Excellent capture of a coneflower with wonderful details and a nice clean background. Good things come to those that wait, and wait, and wait...
