Superb. One of my favorites, and gorgeous photography, too.

Gorgeous!

Thanks Sonya and Ron for your nice comments.

M. davisii is my favorite too, specially now when we have winter time here in Finland without any snow. It is dark here, but this very bright and vivid yellow flower make me smile every time i look at it ... :) ... my little sun ...
