Wildflowers in Snow Canyon
Yesterday I shot these tiny wildflowers, measuring about 1/4 inch across, on a sunny day in Snow Canyon, about 10 minutes from our home. I'm always looking for interesting backgrounds for macro shots. I liked the contrast of these bright flowers in front of a large, black volcanic rock spotted with yellow and orange lichen. I have a photographer friend who knows the name of every flower I have ever asked him about, and he tells me this is called Woolly Daisy, AKA, Wallace's Woolly Daisy. I'll take his word since he's an expert in naming western wild flowers!

One tiny insect to add as nature would, lovely background, almost a "Monet" look to it.
What a tiny delight!
Karen, very pretty! It seems that the tiny flowers are often very pretty! Nice to see the bug too!
Beautiful.The name sounds right,because they look like daisies.I am no expert on wild flowers,except to enjoy them.
The details in the center of a flower so small attest to a Heavenly Artist involved in their creation. Lovely photo.
The background compliments the cute yellow flowers.
