I don't think I've ever seen a Aquilegia
before, I like the pattern of dark and light purples with a bend of the stem so they look down.

So this is a columbine? They seem to have the same name and the same growth habit of drooping forward. I love the wonderful pattern on these purple lovelies.

Are those named after Christine Aquilegia? LOL. (Sorry, that's my redneck side showing.) I have never seen these before. Quite unusual. Excellent shot, Thad.

Think this image belongs to the 'belly category' (taken when one was laying on the belly, lol).
Wonderful post though, Thad.

Beautiful capture, Thad. Like most of other friends, I haven't seen such a flower before, too. They have very interesting color and texture. Very nice composition.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
