Field Garlic Flower
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 6 July 2008 in Plant & Nature.
Taken today, indoors. I picked the flower in our meadow this morning. Non-native.
*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****
I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

Great shot and contrast! Although... they don't exactly look like flowers to me ^^" More like deep sea marine life ^^"

Splendid dof, and the colors of these plants suggest perfume... do they small as garlic does ?
Very good image.
