It’s hard being a Cosmos in North Texas

We have had record-breaking rains for two months, over 40”, and very high winds the last few days. There were a few wind-whipped Cosmos flowers in our local “do not mow” wildflower area. This one shows the element’s ravages perfectly.
A stunning capture Lou Ann, lovely colour and dof. Fav

Very nice DoF to show how hard it would be to stay pretty here.

really like your shallow depth of field that gives us a hint at the environmental context

That is one determined flower.

A survivor and still beautiful.

You put this brave little wildflower on the TP and PP! I checked my rain amounts and we had 21” in September and 20” in October. That amount of rain has never happened before and I’m sure it won’t happen again. The trees are staying green longer, because of all the rain I know.
