This flower is reeealllly tiny and I have NO idea what it is.

Shot in front of a white wall using natural light coming from a window to the left.

Found it!! It's a Henbit and is a member of the mint family :)

Is it a wildflower? Maybe in the orchid family. Nice DOF.

Ahhhh- some sort of wildflower I would guess- I love Gregory's comparison to synchronized swimmers ! Well done !!!

Difficult shot to pull off - you have made a really good job of it; interestingly, my favourite part of the image is the lower part where the light catches the red under the flower.

They look like a couple of synchronised swimmers. Very pretty.

They sure do look like they are looking at something- I see yakatme has beaten me to this observation.

That is a very cool flower! I like the composition in which you have the two flowers complimenting/imitating each other, as well as the way you composed the shot on the left third leaving some leading space in what appears to be in front of their face. In other words, you chose what I feel was the right side to leave open in the image. They do appear to be 'looking' to the right, don't they? Or am I losing it?
