Golden Ragwort
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 7 May 2009 in Plant & Nature.
One of my favorite spring wildflowers. Over the years, these have spread in my garden from one plant.
A few words about the EXIF data. 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.

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.

WOW, just an explosion of yellow and green. I gotta say I really like this. The composition is dynamic, the bokeh is interesting without being destracting. An absolutely stunning spring feel. A real treat for the eyes, Anita.

Fresh. Springlike. Cheerful. Playful. Those are words that came to mind while viewing this nicely composed image!

The bright yellow with the greenish yellow Bokeh makes this a beautiful image

I really like how the yellow infuses the whole image . . it is the way we see flowers such as these.
