Summer is in full swing here in hot, humid Baltimore, and my gardens are filled with the state flower of Maryland (US), the Blackeyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta). Here are four photos taken at dusk an evening ago. I am partial to the first, but would like your thoughts on them. As always, thank you for your time and interest in viewing my photos.

#1 for me, Bob: colour, composition, contrast.

One more, this one up close and personal.

I'm with you Bob, I like the first one. It's a beauty.

No question, the first one is my favorite…

Another vote for the first one....though it is hard to choose.

Thanks everyone. #1 it is.

I like #1 too.

Yup, numero uno!

#1, for composition, and for inclusion of that small amount of purple in the background.

I like #1 also but I would try pulling the background down bit more. Enough that they are still there but not as prominent.

Love these flowers.. so bold in their colors!!
