Default Hospital Blues

Photographers Comments
Had to quickly take a friend to the hospital..so to kill time I found flowers growing wild on a sandy hillside.

Very nice capture, Faye. My preference is blooms in natural surroundings, the play of the blue against the green-with-lilac(?)background works well and the depth of field gives a good separation.

The perfect composition and excellent use of DOF. Really good image Fay, it stands out a mile. Its almost as if the plant is posing for you.
