Captured this on Saturday July 11, 2015 while I was out having a wonderful walk. This elegant lady was calling to me, "Please take my picture", so I obeyed and then I showed her the picture and she was thrilled and also gave me permission to post it on the Internet.

Don't have a clue what this pretty little lady is so if you can tell me, I'd love to know.

Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 to bring out more detail and enhance the colour. Then used my usual standby to downsize the image, which is iPiccy.com

Thank you in Advance for your comments and favs if you chose to do so.

Thanks to Kathy our flower specialist, she told me it is a Cosmos

Have a beautiful day, ♥ Skates

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Whatever it is, it is a beauty. I love the way the petals seem to have pleats. Great shot, Pat.

Well, you did her proud. The colour, focus and composition are excellent.

A fine shot of this lovely cosmos Pat.

They are very easy to grow from seed and butterflies love them.

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
