Check out the photography of a friend of mine outside of Aminus3:
Brian Dykes' Blue Echoes Photography - Beautiful nature and city images from the guy that turned me on to Adobe Lightroom

Observing from Chester, United Kingdom

Beautiful moment, and you have captured it right there. Good shot Eric.

Eric, that looks like a "painted lady" to me but that doesn't detract from the way you captured the sunny light and the beautiful yellows of the coreopsis. That's a mid-summer photo for us in Oklahoma.
