Ithuriel's Spear Wildflowers
by Laura Milholland

Alta Loma Trail, San Rafael, CA

The soft light helped these lovely purple wildflowers to just kind of glow,
and the background became soft and unobtrusive without direct sunlight.

Beautiful. I love that the purple stands out against the brown background and the lighting is soft and diffused enough so that there are no harsh highlights or shadows.

This is really nice, Laura! I agree that the diffused light helped the purple wild flowers to stand our & almost glow. Very nice indeed. Lovely composition, too.
