Before and after the petals fall

Before and after the petals fall
This Poppy was photographed at the Reader Rock Garden in Calgary, on 8 August 2012. Not quite sure why I posted a photo from so long ago, when I have been taking too many recent photos to cope with, ha. Maybe the colour just caught my eye.

Interesting fact:

"Canada issued special quarters (25-cent coins) with a red poppy on the reverse in 2004, 2008 and 2010. The 2004 Canadian "poppy" quarter was the world's first colored circulation coin." From WIkipedia.

Hmm, I'm wondering if this Poppy photo is showing up as my main photo for today, i.e. the very last photo seen, or as my intended second photo (of three), with the Franklin's Gulls as my main and last posted image. If you understand what I mean : ) On at least two days recently, Flickr seems to have changed the order in which I post my photos, which I find annoying. Or I should say, a couple of friends have said that my intended main photo is not showing up as the main one.
