Here are some shots I've taken with the new camera of an assortment of flowers blooming in August. Some are wildflowers, others from my gardens.
This is a tall coneflower-type plant from my garden. I'm not 100% sure which one it is.
This calendula was caught in the early morning light, kissed with dew from the night.
For some reason this lupine is sporting a witch's broom! I've never seen this outside of trees and shrubs, so it intrigued me.
Viper's Bugloss (Echium vulgare) is a non-native plant found along roadsides and in desolate areas, but it's one of my favorite flowers. The play of colors, blue with a touch of pink, is just so pretty.
Sweet Annie, an artemisia, is one of those flowers encouraged as a companion for veg gardens. I suspect this is because it attracts pollinators. It also reseeds itself very well. It's cheerful yellow blossoms are a welcome addition to the garden.
