Gusts

Original photo, no filter. Loving the colors of this flower I found just the other day. It's got that full on summer vibe going with the bright yellow, orange and red. The inside of the petals, closest to the center, kind of remind me of those posters you see with the rising sun over the mountains. Bright colors with the sun beating down, if I'm remembering right I forgot my sunglasses and I was squinting from the glare as I took the shot. Ended up turning out okay, made a few simple crops so that I could center for display. Decided to zoom in closely rather than standing back and taking the shot from a distance. If you've been following my blog you know I like to get in there real close so I can capture all the details. If this dang wind would die down you'd think we were only a week away from Spring. Really cold today.
