Finally, wildflower season in Central Texas. There aren't much to take pictures of in Central Texas except for this time of year when wildflowers are everywhere. Paint brush and blue bonnet are common ones seen around my house. This was taken in Temple, Texas where I live. The place looks like a fairway of a golf course filled with wildflowers. I find so hard to take a good picture of wildflowers. It's really technically difficult to take a good wildflower field picture. Here, I got very close to the flowers near me to show some details of the flowers. But, if the depth of field is too large, the picture can become too busy, so I narrowed the depth of field (larger aperture) and made the top half blurry and not disturbing. If I make the aperture too large then the picture looks like a miniature picture. I also lower the angle of view by getting low on the ground to take this picture. Our eye level is boring when I take pictures. When I get lower, I can capture more flowers in one shot and the flower bed looks denser.
