Nice. I'd crop it a little more tightly, leaving out the Astragalus feinbruniae on the right...

Hi Ori,
great composition! lovely degree of colours in the sky, great POV (vertical taken from the ground... interesting idea) and DOF. I like those natural colours. I don´t know if the flowers has that dark violet... if not, a little more of light would be great, because they get a bit lost with that amazing blue sky
TFS
have a nice day

Hi Ori

A lovely capture of this rare and protected flower. I love how the inflorescence reaches upwards and how the purple flowers stand off against the deep blue sky. I can see quite a number of these plants in the BG and I believe you when you say "Thousands of inflorescences at this place are a marvellous sight".

I like the vertical composition focusing only on the two specimens and showing only a limited view of the surrounding habitat, thus focusing ones view on the subject. The colours are very natural and the exposure was well controlled as usual with your shots.

Very well done and TFS.
Regards
Loot
