Today's Flowers

Bee happy!
The shimmering of the petals is fun to look at, but I noticed for the first time that these flowers look like they have a tiny blossom withing a blossom. Apparently, the bee likes that feature. Here, I found particular enjoyment with the shadows inside the flower's cup. This exuberant flower seems to be oblivious to its fate. Notice the withered petals on the far left. Speaking of impending doom, this was one solitary bright spot in an area that was filled with weeds. I had the task of clearing two patches for some new plants. The flower is in (ahem) in a better place, now.
