Detail of a bluebell flower

Base of a bluebell flower, Eustoma exaltatum.

A dense colony of wildflowers, like yesterday’s bluebells, is pretty in the aggregate, but I often prefer taking a close look at a single flower. In this case make that part of a flower; although some people don’t like a truncated view, I find that it emphasizes abstract forms.
