Some small flowers I found growing against a chickenwire fence. It's Woodland Pinkroot aka Indian Pink (Spigelia marilandica). The Pacific Coast is outside its comfort range and this specimen wasn't doing well in our hot, dry summer.

Lovely composition and good control of the depth, Russ.
As usual, I have no idea what they are, but certainly an interesting shape and good colours. Like that (out of focus) chicken wire background.
Did you actually place the single out-of-focus (left flower) within that wire frame. It works perfectly.

The composition is excellent as well as the color and lighting.
Nicely done.

Thank you both for the nice comments.

I didn't change the arrangement of the flowers. I'm not above doing that if it helps the picture. In this case, I liked it as is, but tried several different angles.
