Our neighborhood has lots of these in front yards. Maybe opium is the next drug that Colorado will legalize?

I love this shot. I used to grow orange poppies and don't remember the blue. Maybe I should plant some in this garden. Dave

T - I think part of what makes this flower so intriguing is the delicate symmetry. Jim

The colors and intricacies are so extraordinary that this becomes other-worldly in its absolute beauty. (which, with tiresome insistence, I am given to wonder if a flower, any flower is beautiful without human perception of the thing of beauty? the thing still certainly and absolutely does exist, but it exists without beauty...not beautiful though it is exactly the same, because beauty is a human additive...its practical utility remains perfect or not, but beautiful? No.) Traveller

I like the contrast in colors. Jim
