Daily HDR Photo — Very Yellow Flowers
Today’s photo is the backs of some flowers as they blow in the breeze.
About
I didn’t like this shot at first, but then I thought flower photography is extremely common. Flowers are probably one of the most photographed subjects, in fact. But how many shoot the backs of the flowers? You guys know I am always trying to be a bit different from the crowd in my photography, so here is something a little different for you. Hope you enjoy it.
Anyone know the name of this flower, by the way? It looks like it is from the Daisy family. I polled the fine folks on twitter and got a few answers. Someone told me it was a Yellow Chrysanthemum. Another said it was a Garland Chrysanthemum (also called a Crown Daisy). A Japanese responder told me it was シュンギク which is in fact Garland Chrysanthemum, so that one has two votes. If you are a botanist or otherwise a flower person and know for sure, please let me know in the comments.
