Artist's Description
Marble Falls Cemetery
Bluebonnets have been loved since man first trod the vast prairies of Texas. Indians wove fascinating folk tales around them. The early-day Spanish priests gathered the seeds and grew them around their missions. This practice gave rise to the myth that the padres had brought the plant from Spain, but this cannot be true since the two predominant species of bluebonnets are found growing naturally only in Texas and at no other location in the world.

Love this bluebonnet shot Greg! I have a similar one in my Bluebonnet /wildflowers album that's displaying sunlight from behind as well. Yours has a great deal of yellow throughout the flower markings, so unusual. Dropped in to support this pretty Texas capture and voted for it in Blue contest. L/F V ArtographyPamela
