Description
This is lobelia from the planter in front of my living room window. While the photograph was taken in June, I just as easily could have taken it today. The lobelia is still in bloom, still going strong.
The whole blossom stalk is probably no more than an inch high.

I love lobelia, partly for the very reason you mentioned, that it blooms forever--and I know just where this is--I saw it up close and personal the other day!!
Absolutly stunning in compo and colour.
Beautiful Image!! Fantastic Shot!!
Thanks for sharing such a bright and refreshing image, beautiful colour enhanced by the superb dof. I myself have deliberately saved most of my summer flower shots to upload on dark and dismal days later into the winter. I will soon sift through them lol.
Lovely memories! Great shot, awesome colors!
Lovely colours.
I know lobelias Tara and they are tiny!!! What a stellar capture. Your compo is perfect and the light spot on!!!! Excellent Image my friend! :)
Gorgeous verycloseup! I shouldn't wish my life away, but roll on the year end!
Great shot, love the colors :)
Beautiful colors and fantastic photo.

Excellent!
OH How wonderful this is and I just looove the colors. I have never seen a lobelia like that before. Thanks for sharing this lovely Lobelia :)
Considering it's only an inch tall makes this photo even more awesome ! wowwwwwwwwww
excellent capture
The sun is shining brightly here at the moment Tara, but there is still plenty of that white stuff about, all the roofs of the houses are still covered. The sun is warm if you stand in front of the window looking out, but very cold if you try and go out to look in. So thank you for this tiny but beautiful flower, that makes me think of summer, and Like Andrea says, I shouldn't wish my life away but like her I wish Spring was here. Excellent capture and a warming image. Bravo!!!!!
Tara, your flower shots and those of others are so sparkling that come springtime, I may have to begin raising something beyond grass and weeds :) Great macro here. Bill
Wonderful capture and composition!! :)
marvelous beauty,very herat worm photo
Wonderful macro capture sweetie, great DOF!!
really fantastic shot!!!!!
they definitely stand out! excellent postwork, possibly verging on oversharpened with the in-focus details... but a very beautiful shot!
I also have never seen lobelia like that, and this is a marvelous macro!
The pov is excellent as is the dof! It brings its own warmth with it making it so enjoyable on a cloudy, damp day like today.
Very lovely picture
Very well done! Clive
Fantastic image! :)
Absolutely gorgeous Tara!
Im still trying to adjust to the cold weather after months of subtropical sunshine.. I cant wait for springtime. Nice Macro.
