Orange columbine
Shot at Zion National Park in June 2005 using a Nikon D100 and Nikkor 28-200mm zoom. Image processed for levels, color balance, and unsharp mask filter with Photoshop CS. This solitary columbine was suspended in one of Zion Canyon's famous hanging gardens. It required maximum telephoto to isolate it from the background.
