The marvelous lupines have a festival all their own and live only a short time in the magical space between the end of spring and the beginning of summer...perhaps that is why we here in NE adore them when they bloom profusely, which is most of the time, but mourn them when the conditions are not right...This is an in-between year..I present the wild one and her friends at Shadow Lake, VT.

PJ, I "ditto" what jeenie said. They look like flower spike trees. Your photos always are so clear, like really being there. This is the first lupine I've ever seen. Good shot. Terry

Hi PJ,
Lovely capture, those Lupines sure look colorful in that beautiful green garden, so elegantly looking, a special view in a special place, (~8 8~)
Very clear shot, I like the colors of the flowers next to the lovely blue sky and great green tints all around,
Beautifully done,
Thanks for sharing

Most people lye asleep and notice nothing around them. Just wake up and see the natural beauty around you. It will blow you away.

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

If you have some minutes why don't you come visiting my gallery ?
Beautiful colors in this shot and I agree that the background in this shot was screaming to be seen. BTW, I was surprised to find the lupines still out at the coast yesterday. I thought they would be gone by now for sure.

Several of my photos are available for purchase in larger format at Shutterpoint, and some are available in high quality framed prints at http://djholmes.imagekind.com/
Nice shot .. good contrasts and colour saturation.
Lupines are wonderful we have some in our garden ... ..

The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking. - Brooks Anderson
This is really great, PJ. I love everything about it. The colors are fantastic, the POV perfect, and the background is a nice addition. You go, girl! :)

The vertical shot and framing work perfectly with these tall beauties! Seems we always appreciate those things most that we seldom get to see.

I really like how you've got the tallest flower centered in the middle...it really balances the whole picture out. The DOF is spot on as well.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
