Poppy macro
A close look at a poppy flower that was blooming in my neighborhood about three weeks ago. The blossom was quite large, maybe 4 or 5 inches across. After this kind of poppy fades, the seed pods are quite interesting, too.
For other close looks at the most amazing assortment of things, visit Macro Monday.
I think this is bright enough for the Color Carnival folks, also. Hope you agree.
Gorgeous! I don’t mind living in that kind of neighborhood.
so so wonderful!
strange but it reminds me of an orange carousel.
nice.
What an interesting flower. Perfect for macro shooting and you have captured it well!
WOW, that’s a stunning macro shot with amazing details and colors.
Gorgeous!!! love the contrast!
Happy MM!
I love poppies…I love this!
Wow Sara! This is so gorgeous! Wonderful macro shot! Thanks for playing along at the Color Carnival
Wow! awesome macro shot. Love the flower!
That is very cool. I took the same shot of pink poppies a couple of weeks ago and posted them …. it’s interesting that the colours are the same in both the orange and pink ….
