I love the fact that, when you really look at flowers up close, they really are full of dirt, pollen, and all sorts of things.
I also love that flowers and horses make me sneeze, but that I never stay away.
[update: my pal Susan informs me that I got my flower name incorrect. I plead guilty; I'm the picture guy, not the nomenclature guy.

Love the composition and light, Rick. Great start to the year!
