I don’t really know what I was feeling when I took this picture. Probably something along the lines of: “Great! Another one for the ‘By the roadside series’ – one I hadn’t seen before”. I guess it’s just an ordinary picture of a pleasant looking bright yellow flower. Even less interesting than some of my other pictures. Still, if I’m going to document plants growing by the road around our lake I suppose I have to try to get as many as I can. Or maybe not… It’s also marred by the leaf just below the flower. It was a breezy day and the flowers were moving around a lot and I imagine I was so focused on the flower that I didn’t even see the leaf. Another example of how important it is to really look around the frame for distracting elements.

I have no idea what this plant is, but I find it quite attractive.
