Spring has arrived, and here are the phlox longifolia to prove it. This, along with yellow arrowhead balsam root, were in abundance along the basalt cliffs and among the sage brush. The buckwheat and parsley are still to come, as are the yellow bells and death camas.
I don't photograph a lot of flowers, or at least not very often. But in spring, I nearly can't resist it. First, it's hard to fuck up a photo of a flower - especially a bunch of flowers, like this one. The focus isn't even all that important. Just get *something* in focus and you're fine.
There's nothing amazing about this photo, nor was there supposed to be. It's just my way of saying, "hey, look, it's finally spring!"
Curiously, the name "phlox" comes from the Greek via Latin - it's a word for "flame". I believe it comes from the same root as "conflagration," but I can't find anything certain about that. It does seem to be the same root as "effulgent."
