A few days ago I posted a picture of a bunch of these flowers under the title “Round Blue Mystery Flowers”. I later learned that they are called Blue Globe Thistles. The official count for the BC trip is 1255 images. Of course, some are duplicates and not all are flowers but still I have plenty to draw from. But it would not be in the spirit of the project to rest on my laurels. I just needed a day to chill out today. I promise, I will get back in the field tomorrow. I’ve got my pictures all transferred and backed up and I’m starting to try and figure out how to scrapbook this trip since so many of the images are of flowers. On this one I again just adjusted the exposure a little and added a high pass filter for sharpening and just a touch of vibrance. Otherwise pretty much straight out of the camera.
