Lovely Echinasia, Almost SOOC!!!

Here's another picture I took at Jacksonville the other day...there were so many incredible flowers there that Steve had to drag me away by the ear! :D

By the way, except for cropping and a couple of blemish removals, this image is straight out of the camera! What a rarity for me! I usually fool around with my pictures to some degree. This one is nicest without being touched! :)

Work update: The end of this project is in sight! I estimate I'll be back to frolicking on Flickr like a crazy kitten on catnip in about 3 days! YAY!! Thanks to all of you for your amazing comments and all the favorites...you make me feel on top of the world and I appreciate it so much! :) I am dearly looking forward to visiting in a proper fashion when I finally have a day off! :)
