WILD FLOWER

I don't know the ID of this specie.
I find it in the 'MAGREDI' of Cellina River (PN, Italy),
a semi-desertic area with low vegetation and unusual micro-climate.
'MAGREDI' it's one of the best place in Italy for wild ground-orchid.
May and June are the best time to spot them.
This pic was taken hand-held a Nikon D200 + 105mm macro lense VR (vibration reducer).
In post-production I only added a little sharpness.
Thanks for your comments and eventually ID this flower.

Andrea

Hi Andrea,
A wonderful flower with great colors, pov and blured background. The hard light complicates the exposure, but you managed it right.

Hello Andrea!
Beautiful flower presantation here! Wonderful colours both on the flower and the bg also. pov, framing, sharpness all are great! As for the id, it is a some kind of scabious maybe the field scabious (knautia arvensis) or any other.
TFS!

Hermosa imagen Andrea con una efecto de luz muy atinado.
Excelente DOF y POV para realzar aún más la belleza de la flor.
Tal vez el encuadre sea un poco ajustado, pero no desmerece la calidad de la presentación.

Beautiful image Andrea with a very accurate effect of light.
Excellent DOF and POV Enhancing still more the beauty of the flower.
Perhaps the frame is a little fit, but not be unworthy of the quality of the presentation.

Hello Andrea,
Beautiful details and light on the flower. First name I think about is scabiosa, the ones I had in my garden certainly looked very similar.
Well done and TFS

Hi Andrea
I think this flower is a variety of Scabiosa, in Canada we grow it as a Perennial. Nice macro, excellent detail, colours and sharpness. Very pretty shot.

Hello Andrea,
very nice composition, I like the color combination a lot. POV, sharpness and details are wonderful. Stands out very well from the OOF BG. Well done.

This flower is beautiful, I love the texture and details. I think I might have cropped the right side just a bit so it wasn't so centered, but I really like it! I love the back petals in shadow and the splashes of light, well done!
