This is a new flower for me this year. I think it is a wildflower as well in my state. Hopefully that means it will come back next year. This is called Sneezeweed. The flowers remind me of Blanket Flower. It has bloomed all summer for me. The name comes from the fact that the leaves were dried and used for snuff back in the day. The image is actually a 5 image focus stack that I spent way too much time on for what it is but turned out pretty well I think.
Gorgeous shot, Shelly! Love the red and yellow set against the darkened background. The flowers really pop!
