The Yampa River Botanic Gardens in Steamboat Springs, CO have some beautiful flowers. Here are three that appealed to me.

I like em all, but the simplicity of #3 , the water lily with it's fall-off in DOF, is definitely my favorite.

I like the cone flower the best personally here they are a favorite flower of mine as the make great perches for butterflies. The lily shot is nice but I think the shadows are a bit to dark overall here on that shot, the middle flower is nice but nothing super in my opinion about that shot.

I love number 2, but then again Columbine is my favourite flower.


I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade. -Yeats
