I chose this little group because the flower that really stands out is the rosy Indian paintbrush, Castilleja rhexifolia -- that color really seems to glow. It may defy description as well--it certainly is not rosy, or purple, or pink. What do you call that color?
My significant other says it is magenta.
I am less sure of the others. I think the one with droopy yellow petals is longleaf arnica, Arnica longifolia. The one with lavender petals may be leafy aster, Aster foliaceus.
So there is much I do not know about this frame, other than this natural composition caught my eye in a mountain meadow resplendent with wildflowers.

Arnica montana (Asteraceae) 162 22
Arnica montana is a moderately toxic ethnobotanical European flowering plant in the sunflower family. It is noted for its large yellow flower head.
Arnica montana is widespread across most of Europe. Arnica montana grows in nutrient-poor siliceous meadows or clay soils. It mostly grows on alpine meadows and up to nearly 3,000 m. It is rare overall but may be locally abundant. It is becoming rarer, particularly in the north of its distribution, largely due to increasingly intensive agriculture and commercial wild-crafting.
Historically, Arnica montana has been used as an herbal medicine for centuries.

I saw quite a lot of them on Stöckli, where we arrived after taking the cable car Gütsch-Express from the new station at Nätschen till the end station Gütsch.

Arnica montana or Wolf's bane is very popular in herbal medicine, especially for anti-inflammatory purposes.
It is lovely to see an alpine meadow dotted with these bright yellow flowers.

L'Arnica se distingue aussi par sa tige de couleur vert pâle, couverte de poils glanduleux et très odorants. Mais aussi par les feuilles qui se trouvent à sa base, ovales et à nervures longitudinales saillantes en dessous : on appelle cela la rosette.
Arnica des montagnes est une espèce de plante herbacée vivace rhizomateuse Cette plante européenne principalement montagnarde est typique des sols acides et pauvres en éléments nutritifs. Ses populations, fortement malmenées par l'agriculture intensive, deviennent de plus en plus rares.
l'arnica des montagnes est décrite dans des pharmacopées européennes pour son usage dans le traitement de petits traumatismes comme les hématomes mais cet usage n'est pas soutenu par des études scientifiques
Pourtant de nouvelles études montreraient que la molécule la plus active de l'arnica serait l'hélénaline, comme anti-inflammatoire, à des doses inférieures à celles habituellement données avec des médicaments .

A picture of the sun shining through snow-covered branches. A picture of a picture, to be exact -- because I used a high f-stop on this to capture the sunrays (and glistening ice crystals, seemingly!) it was too sharp for my liking. And so I took a picture of the picture on my computer screen to create an aesthetically acceptable version....to me at least -- don't get on me about proper photo quality, lol. LET ME BE THE MAD SCIENTIST I WAS BORN TO BE. I learn through EXPERIMENTATION, HUBRIS, and CATASTROPHE.
