Pink Evening Primrose, Throckmorton, Texas
Taken on South Minter Avenue, here's a small abandoned building with a decorative crop of Pink Evening Primrose. Three weeks later there wasn't a single blossom left. We have driven past this place several times over the years but this is the first time we've caught it with the flowers. Crouching down low to shoot worked out well in making the blossoms more prominent as well as hiding a junk chair that was at the front of the structure. Kneeling would have been painful due to the plentiful crop of grass burrs present. I carried a fairly large number back to the truck on my socks, but flicked them away with a plastic fork, an essential tool to have with you in grass burr country.
