Those are great shots, every one of them! I love looking at the other side of the bloom. Gives a whole new perspective!

Glad you all enjoyed the photos. The light is breathtaking this time of year. But it moves fast ... The phrase "bright sadness" comes to mind.

The first picture is of river oats, a native plant that I have been using as filler in difficult places in the woodland garden. It makes a nice filler in flower arrangements, too.
