wildflowers in NM

in #flower7 years ago (edited)

Recently I went on a quick trip to NM, taking about 200 photos along the way. I love to take photos of nature - the colors, patterns, contrast, shadows, the life growing and twisting and bending, inhabiting space with a host of life growing in the space in between the cracks.

Eventually i will write more articles but for today im doing the quick and easy after spending all day unpacking and editing photos. I'll start with a selection of wildflower photos, because really, who doesn't like the artistic complexity of a flower? I have only a vague idea on some of the names here, and not a clue on others. Anyone who can identify please chime in.

And just because it needs saying, all of these photos are mine, taken by me on my Nikon D5300, or in a few cases on my i phone 6. Most have been cropped for detail and a few of them edited to decrease shadows or glare. The majority were taken in Santa Fe, NM or along Interstate I-25 heading north.



ok shrooms in grass. not exactly flowers tho there is a meadow hawksbeard in there. cute yes?



i think this is wild sage but not positive..

I think that trailing ground flower might be morning glory, but I'm not absolutely certain.

i was looking through all the wildflower guides for it. looks like angels trumpet except the leaves are all wrong.
