"Gold and Grand Tetons," Wyoming, May 2006

While I've certainly taken my share of macro and closeup flower photos, I tend to prefer blooms as an accent to the scene rather than a bulb of color dominating the frame. Those shots certainly have their use, and I continue to shoot them, but my personal preference is to try to work the bulbs into a more wide-reaching image. So that's why I knelt on the ground on a breeze May afternoon outside Grand Teton National Park to position these low-lying flowers just right.

I can almost feel the breeze. Love this shot. Personally, I try to take shots in between the gusts of wind. Now, I know it can be done differently.
