4" tall wild flower near the beach

[marie]

at the beach on Sunday this very small wild flower was among the tall grasses

I took the shot using the super macro on the pro1
1/125 f3
there is a lot of 'noise' showing around the flower
I done 'sprayed strokes' in ps to make it more of a painting effect

the white blobs are two new buds just out
