From infrared to bright yellow. It would be nice to put a name with a face, or in this case a name with a flower. I can hear Ralph Clevenger yelling at me now (not that he would ever yell): you need to add the names of these flowers in your metadata.
He’s right of course – so if there is anyone out there that is reading this blog and knows the names of the flowers I post here, please, please let me know what they are!
This particular bloom was taken on a walk along Cabrillo Blvd in East Beach, on the side of the Andre Clark Bird Refuge -at least I know where I was when I took the shot! To me it doesn’t look like a wild flower, it looks more like an iris I would find in a cultivated field – but what do I know? I just know I liked it enough to stop my walk and photograph it.
