This was actually shot a little earlier this summer. I tried to capture the transluscence of the petals against the setting sun. I really like this one. And it did not need much PP: just a slight crop to remove a weird looking flower head, a bit of saturation boost and curves adjustment. Enjoy!

Well composed and I'm a sucker for muted colors. Very pretty.

Like the poppy in front. Think there are too many blurred ones in the background. IMHO

Poppies are often such flamboyant flowers, but here they look soft and delicate with that great lighting. Very nice.
