Not sure what these flowers are called, but thought they looked interesting from this angle, and so did a couple of bees too!

Great angle, wonderful sky and a bee in mid-flight. I've no idea what the flowers are though. The bees reminded me of This.

I really like this, Ann. The angle is inspiring. I may very well be wrong but I think the flower is a member of the Alium family. Beautifully done.

I like your take on these flowers. They look really nice against the gorgeous cloud filled sky. Nice work.

Very nicely done Ann - great angle and they (whatever they are :) ) look so well against that beautiful sky.

They are bees... and I feel like a frog waiting for them from this perspective. Nice DT, no doubt.

Lovely shot! You're quite right: the angle is great! And that happens to be another tip from the pros (I read it in a book): "Shoot the flowers from down below, or horizontal, level with the cusps, for a different view and perspective"! See, you've got a natural knack for it Ann!!

This is such a nice angle, it gives more perspective and originality to the shot. I love the bees in action. Excellent post!

Hi Ann...great shot, I think these flowers may be Thistle's.
Just a guess.
