A new wildflower that I'd never seen before found in a nearby field - and identified by the nice folks at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin - it's called Blue Curls (Phacelia Congesta)...this one with a bumblebee buried in it about as deep as he can get.

Simply gorgeous Val, very beautifully done!!! #11482819Reynaldo D. Reyes June 06, 2016
What strikes my about this image is the engaging grouping of the flowers that shows great harmony and balance as in a hexagonal shape. The colors are so delightful to the eyes as well as the repeating patterns. The bee is a wonderful bonus that makes this capture extra special. #11482967Leslie McLain June 06, 2016
