[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this photo while hiking on the main range walk in the heart of the Australian Alps heading for the Mount Kosciuszko summit, the roof of Australia. There were many beautiful wildflowers in bloom and these were some of them.

The one in my photo is called the Grass Trigger Plant (Stylidium graminifolium).

You can find some interesting information about it on the following site:

Hello Claudia.
Very nice capture and flowers.Vivid colours,light are great.Thanks for posting!

Hi Claudia!
This is a fantastic capture. I love the colour of these exotic looking wild flowers. Great macro and very well framed.

These are really pretty flowers and I love the colors, framing and composition. Nice blurred background too.

Claudia,

Great shot. Sharpness and depth are just right, with the background nicely out of focus.
Lovely colours, and the framing is just right.
Any idea what the plant is called?
