I have no idea what this is but it was in my brother-law's garden a couple of weekends ago and I thought it looked abit Triffid like in close-up.

We call these 'twos' and fours'...ie: 2 stems and 4 petals

Great capture, and an excellent choice for the current content too

I saw these flowers in a garden a few weeks ago, but I don't know what they are called either. I love how you caught their delicate petals & the center is so nicely detailed too. Beautiful capture, Steve.

Excellent macro - good contest entry, best of luck :)

BTW it is a perennial cornflower. Very hardy and can overtake a flower bed very quicky -

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I love Bachelor Buttons and this close up is wonderful! Vivid colors, and the feathery petals are just beautiful. Good job on this picture and thank you!
