Interesting lighting in #2...I took images of a whole field of backlit bluebonnets and forgot about using a lens hood-got lots of lens flare...

Wow this is interesting, typically #2 isn't well received even though it is my favorite. Thanks for all the comments.

Don, I like the second picture. It appears to me that the focus may be a bit soft on this one. I wish that I had shot like this!

That was a hard shot the sun wasn't quite low enough to be diminished enough so the light just wrapped it's self around the flower and I was unable to see well enought to get it into focus right. It was also windy as usual. I was using a 8x NDF.

Thanks for the comments!!
