I took these photos at a state park in the north Georgia mountains. I have no idea what they are. If you'd like to see more pictures of flowers visit Luiz and join in the fun.
Very beautiful wildflowers! We call the blue ones in the first picture cornflowers. I do not know the name of the red ones, but they grow in traditional Austrian peasant's gardens :)
The blue ones look like cornflower/bachelor buttons. Can't figure out the daisy-like red/yellow ones. But I love the top photo, because you have a bit of both colors/flowers in it.
These are some awesome photos! You have no idea what they are...while I'm here thinking I have no idea how you captured such a shot: depth, dimension, and perfect color!
This is a good time to catch colour in the fields! These are beautiful examples of what might be found! We get the cornflowers growing wild here but the other ones I have only seen as cultivated flowers. Lovely shots Dot!
These are lovely Dot.I love wildflowers and you captured these perfectly. Thanks for stopping by. I'm back and hope to be posting regularly again. Hope you had a great summer..xx
I don't know for the red ones, but your blue flowers are called in France "BLEUET"(bleu means blue).My dictionnary translates that as cornflower; They were a pretty symbol in former times, because they were the symbol of the french veterans soldiers of the first world war;
Dot: That first one is a weed that grows wild along the roadway and are very envasive. I had the Cornflower on last week and it is very pretty when tamed. The second one is a beautiful wildflower with great colors.
fantastic Dot, This are great flower-shots,wonderfull colours too. I looked at moste photo's on your blog but you are really a photographic talent! I really enjoyed watching your photography, thanks for sharing:)
I love cornflower. The color is so pretty, in fact it is one of my favorite colors. I have blanket flower growing around my doggies grave in the backyard...
Beautiful! Glad to see you are out and about shooting the countryside..Its getting close for the roadtrip to begin anew as October is just around the corner.plan to be not to far away from your area as its my favorite area...Keep the shutter clicking away Dot!

Fantastic! These are wonderful photos :)
Wow! i love the colors! your camera is so good!
my flower is posted here.
I also think the blue ones are batchlor buttons, a fave from my childhood. These are both great photos.
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Love it!
So pretty.... a nice variety.

These are gorgeous! That first one almost seems like a painting or posed photo. Really nice.
Oh, these are so pretty! I love the blue ones.
The top image evokes country and I really like it!
They are all wonderful together.
I believe the red one is Gaillardia - blanket flower.
Beautiful flowers and great pictures
BEautiful flowers, beautiful colors. MB
Very pretty!
Beautiful photos. The first one looks like it was taken in a field.
Your flowers are beautiful. I think one might be a relative of an Indian Blanket. Not sure. Mine are up at Thunder Maker.

For me, just know that they are beautiful, and your photos are great.
Yep, bachelor buttons (Centaurea cyanus) and blanket flowers (Gaillardia). I can't help it -- I'm a wildflower geek. ;-)
Lovely flower shots!

Nice collection of wildflowers!

Beautiful flowers and shots. I like "wild" flowers very much.
What a beautiful palette of colors, I just love wildflowers!
Gorgeous flowers, Dot! Love the beauty of wildflowers!
I believe the blue ones are cornflowers .. the red are part of the daisy family but I cant think of the name ...
Lovely all

Oh very lovely! Nature has a wonderful way of deciding which colours go together!
I don't know for the red ones, but your blue flowers are called in France "BLEUET"(bleu means blue).My dictionnary translates that as cornflower;
They were a pretty symbol in former times, because they were the symbol of the french veterans soldiers of the first world war;
I don't know the names of the plants either. Though the blue flowers are called cornflowers, like maria says.
What a lovely job you did.
i always wonder what people think when the see photographers crawling around at ant level. LOL
Simply stunning Dot! I'd love to gather these flowers and put them in a vase on my table!
Dot, I just wanted to say thank you for popping by my blog and for that lovely comment about my flower photo, its greatly appreciated,

I needed the beauty today. Thanks for visiting History Is Elementary and for the kind words.
These are beautiful photos. I am so glad I saw your site advertised over at Fishing Guy's.
These are beautiful. They remind me of a beautiful bouquet of springs flowers. No clue on what they are - I'll just call them wildflowers.
I love wildflowers and the blue and yellow together is so pretty!

Those are beautiful. Wouldn't it be nice to have a house with those planted all over the roof? :)
Dot: That first one is a weed that grows wild along the roadway and are very envasive. I had the Cornflower on last week and it is very pretty when tamed. The second one is a beautiful wildflower with great colors.
This is so very pretty,it reminded me of Julie Andrews singing in the fields in The Sound of Music.Wonderful shot.
I love wildflowers too and these are beautiful! Wonderful contribution, Dot.
Love the Bachelor Buttons and I think the other ones are some type of Zinnia. Not sure but they are so pretty. Great shots.
Dot
Marvelous flowers, fantastic colors in great capture!
Thanks for your support and presence in TODAY'S FLOWERS!
Hope to see you every week posting flowers!!

Hi Dot. Pappy
I just might have to get Jim to head to Georgia to see some of your flowers. :)
I love cornflower. The color is so pretty, in fact it is one of my favorite colors. I have blanket flower growing around my doggies grave in the backyard...
Beautiful! Glad to see you are out and about shooting the countryside..Its getting close for the roadtrip to begin anew as October is just around the corner.plan to be not to far away from your area as its my favorite area...Keep the shutter clicking away Dot!
Lovely mixed palette of colors!
the wildflower composition is very attractive.
Beautiful wildflowers! I know the periwinkle blossoms as "Batchelor buttons" and they are a favorite from my childhood. ThanX for the sweet memory.
I just love the blue flowers in the first shot!
Beautiful picture Dot! :)
