Thanks, Joel, that's much better! Those poppies are so bright they are like headlights! ~Sharon

Croped and resized as requested. This was taken during one of the few days without rain this March ;-) -Joel

Joel, I love the bright cheerful color of these two! Since this is a macro, or close-up, challenge I wonder if you have enough pixels to crop this down to just the flowers or at least closer to them. The soil and other greenery are a little distracting and a crop would make it a stronger image. It is snowing here now and your image is cheering me up, spring must be on the way! ~Sharon
