more summer color


*EDIT* Thanks, Nick, for identifying the flower below as 'Cleome hasslerana' or spider flower!




I believe the flower below is a phacelia.

such vibrant colours and a beautiful butterfly but I loved the meadow and the wild flowers and the old fence even more. Have a good weekend.

Fantastic shots, Betty. The butterfly was a bonus! The flower it's on is a Cleome hasslerana.
