Purple pasque flower at dusk

Pulsatilla vulgaris (Purple pasque flower) on a spring evening. I am not sure what the little pink flowers are - some sort of 'ground cover' plant which certainly adds interest.

 

This was taken at dusk - right on sunset.

 

Normally I'm all about bright and colourful, but I like to vary things a bit, and these pasque flowers and their hairy petals/stems really come into their own at dusk I find.
