Wow! I have Toad Flax all around me. It is everywhere but none look as nice as does this capture of yours. It simply shows how we all see things differently. Each person has their own idea what something should be. Yours is very pretty. L love it much.

Hi Silke,

Very pretty for a "weed." The lovely yellow looks wonderful against the black background.

I laughed reading the list of aliases this one has. Sometimes I wonder about wikipedia.

This is a beautiful flower that I didn't know Silke! I like this DOF and beautiful dark background which is most appropriated. This is a nice specie with interesting notes about it. Thanks,

Hello Silke

Another mystery solved for me.I always thought these were some sort of snapdragon.

A very good POV showing the florets very well.The colours and lighting are very good.The DOF is excellent and the flower is well focused and shows well against a lovely dark OOF BG.TFS

Hi Silke
Nicely presented flower of beautiful plant.

I like composition (but I think that you could crop it in a different way - it is too much empty space on the bottom and we cant see the stem(shallow DOF) and it is spoiling the compo a little bit)

Very good light and contrast.

Also very nice black buckground.

Unfortunately there are some problem with sharpness and the DOF could be a little bit better (it is to shallow)

I am wondering also how it looks with white (or white and yellow) frame

Best wishes
Krzysztof

Well done!
