Photo Stories: Contentedly Regal

Title: Contentedly Regal | The brightly colored flower proudly flaunts its colors, but is perfectly content if no one ever notices them.

As mentioned in the comment boxes already, photos like this one and the last one can make you long for spring, but I have a feeling most of you are doing that anyway. So yeah, as you can see this is another angle of the same plant. I particularly like the grass in this one. I don't know why; the placement just feels right. Oh well you look right there. I think I've written enough to post this. :)
