This has such rich tones, Ram. I like the centered composition, too. These flowers seem to deserve it!

Ram, a colorful capture. Great saturation and contast.

A very pleasing image.

Hi, Ram.
Nice flower composition. Good colors and framing.

Hello Ram,
An interesting composition, where the arrangement of the flowers is most pleasant!
Fine natural colours and good details in this well framed capture!
Yellow and green is an awesome colour contrast, of course!
Greetings,

It's a pity that this one has not been ID-ed. These are beautiful flowers, and yes they too are in the ASTER family.

My educated guess is that we are looking are ARNICA Quite common in the mountenous region of my country. One doesn't even have to go very high.

English name : Arnica root – Scientific name : Arnica montana – Family : Asteraceae.
---
Description : Arnica, from the plant Arnica montana, is also called Arnica Flowers, Arnica Root, Common Arnica, Leopardsbane, Mountain Arnica, Mountain Tobacco, and Wolfsbane.

[ Medicinal parts include the flowers and the root stock. ]

But I am sure that with the name you can now find suitable material for Notes

I would suggest a repost, as the picture is pixel-wise undersized by at least one third; and Kb-wise is only 50% of what it can be. And of course the frame is eating up a considerable bit. < 10%! >
