I got this in the booth and I`m glad I did. I have never seen a flower like it and you have captured it very well! The focus and lighting are bang on and I like it o/c as well. Great shot.
Oh, I took a pic of one of these, and it was no where as good as yours and I called it a thistle, which it is not, and I can't remember for the life of me what it was finally identified as...perhaps it will come to me, or some other more knowledgeable person will answer your query..in the meantime, you did a very nice job on capturing this one :)

Beautiful! I have these in my garden, but they also grow wild.
I think its called "Blue-bonnet" or "Cornflower" in english, but i am not sure. Great work!
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.

"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius & it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm really better than them."--Marilyn Monroe
