[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note

Arnica (Arnica montana) from Asteraceae. More details thanks to Wikipedia.
I want to add that in Dorna Region (East Carpathians), the plant was threated due to collection for medicine purpose, well known its healing active principles. And this was happening in a commercial way, talking in terms of flowers kilos/man/day! Now these collecting centers are not interested anymore in this (for how much time?) so that the plant population has a tempo for recovering. I enjoyed an entire field full of arnica in Poiana Negri!
