The Carmel daisy (Scabiosa prolifera)

It is a flowering plant of the family Dipsacales. Its flowers are creamy yellow or white, and when the petals are shed they leave a greenish-looking dried flower, good for arrangements.

It is a softy-hairy annual with stems that branch dichotomously from near the base to form the typical hemispherical-shaped hummock about 20 cm high. This scabious is a lowland plant, growing on the caked limey soils of the plains. It does not extend into Europe since it seems to prefer a hotter and mor arid climate.

Thanks my supervisor Dr. Bayram Göçmen (boreocypriensis) for id who is a native Cypriot (meridional) and i dedicate this beautiful wild daisy to him for his great contributions to us and TN. Hope you will like this Bayram hocam.

A fine capture of this annual plant surrounded by other floral elements Mehmet, the white flowers were a little over-exposed, a small error resulting from adjusting the exposure based on darker areas, still a good dedication for Bayram...
Mehmet

Merhaba Mehmet, this evening all for Bayram, elegant flower composition with splendid sharpness , great dedications to our friend, very well done, ciao Silvio

Hi Mehmet,

Today is the day for dedications to Bayram! I'm sure he will love these wild daisies and the thoughtfulness of his students. I have never seen these pretty flowers before. Just lovely on the nicely shaped green leaves.

Teşekkürler Elebaşı:) Geçen araziden doldurduğun sandıktan çektiğin bu bahar çiçekleri ile yaptığın atıf için sağol memocan. Ben beğendim. Eline sağlık.
Bayram

Merhaba Mehmet,
bellissima composizione floreale, ottimo POV, buona la definizione, perfetta esposizione, ma per avere bianchi meno luminosi si deve sottoesporre. Complimenti per la dedica al Dr. Bayram. A good photojob.
TFS.

Hello Mehmet
Thanks for sharing this lovely flower dedicated to your professor and our friend Bayram. He surely is well loved and respected among his students and fellow members.
An image with semi-opened flowers or flower buds always attracts my attention. It just makes the overall picture or photograph look so much different and gives it a total other perspective. Yours is no exception. The green and white is a lovely combination, with just a hint of yellow in between. In my opinion the three yellow specks that is just noticeable adds a special touch to this image.
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards.
Anna

Very good POV and DOF.

Interesante toma de Scabiosa. La luz algo subida y eso penaliza el conjunto.

hello Mehmet

Interesting daisy and buds from this top down view. The color of white stands out very nicely among the green here. Perhaps I would compose it diagonally with the 2 white flowers at each corner.

Nice work.

I truly believe he is very sharing of all his amazing knowledge and it shows in your work and short notes to the point...Very well done!

Thanks for your critique on my recent picture, Mehmet.
I have looked at your picture of a wild flower with interest. It is some very different kind of species of wild flowers but highly attractive. Its white colour has a special charm.
Thanks and all the best.
