Even hairy stalks. And the pinkish skirt as the last piece flies off the middle poppy.

Turned down yellow temp to lessen vivid green. Cropped.

Thanks for looking. No need for comment. I'm slow commenting lately.

Rain, of course. I'm trying to do a rain dance here to encourage a little summer rain. Wildfires grow nearer. Shot with my spouse's Micro-Nikkor 200mm f/4D IF-ED, very carefully…

About as shot. The hues look enhanced because of the rain.

Thanks for your comments. If you have a poppy photo that you'd like to add here, feel free.

Last January 2022 I asked a Flickr support hero to remove my account from the Explore algorithm. Peace.
