Peek Under Queen Anne's Skirt

Lace Shadows

The tiny flower shadows of this Queen Anne's Lace seem to be inside the stems, don't they? The effect reminded me of old-fashioned bubble lights on childhood Christmas trees.

Thanks, everyone, for all the well-wishes last week!

A wildflower favorite of mine, used to chew on the roots as a kid, called wild carrot and it's true.

Don’t peek up Anne’s skirts—
it is not polite, you see.
Embrace modesty!

That is a very cool shot. It must have been hard getting the metering just right with the sun overhead like that. Great job!
