[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I dug in my archive, for some pictures, most of them with plants, not spectacular in photographical techniques, but only for, let’s say, botanical information.
This is Antennaria dioica, plant from Compositae (Asteraceae) family, or mountain everlasting. These plants are dioeciously, meaning that the female and the male flowers are on separately individuals. Comparing with other pictures from the net, probably this is a male plant. Probably is not the best picture with this species, or within my archive, but at the time when I took the picture, in august, most of the alpine flowers were gone.
Other information about this plant (and also better pictures with this specie):

So, if you will not like this…it is no problem…I will try next time, with a better picture…

Buna, imi place aaceasta planta ruda cu floarea de colti daca nu ma insel. Este o fotografie reusita, claritatea este bine pusa la punct, la fel si culorile sunt corect redate. Poate ca fundalul este putin mai mult, o cam distrage atentia de la subiect, dar asta se poate rezolva daca se evidentiaza mai bine floarea clara. Numai bine,

Bonjour Oana,
Cette intéressante macro manque tout de même d'un peu de netteté.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.

In this image there is a delicate touch...as if you were reaching out for more, but were hampered by some invisible line of thought or Spirit..and it comes through very strongly. The flora wanted have an image taken....I believe a bit in Findhorn...not much but enough...and you did well..Your heart an eyes are in the right place!
