Wildflower

[dalethorn]

This  is a common wildflower found along suburban roads in Ohio.  The challenges here were a delicate color balance in uneven light, then framing and cropping for subject balance.  A more distant perspective would have been better, but I had to move some weeds around as it was, and the wild aspect made the scene rather chaotic.

Very nice.  It could use some sharpening of the flower.  The flower next to it that is about to bloom gives it some balance.  This is an orange day lily by the way.
