I don't see Bleeding Hearts too often, but I saw several at "Oatlands Historic House and Gardens" near Leesburg, Virginia. There's no question how this plant got it's name.

View LARGE for a good look at these delicate hearts.

I waited to take this after the sun had set as the harsh light would have blown out the delicate flowers. Using my Lensbaby velvet 56 I wanted to give it the dreamy feeling it deserved.

One frame capture, and contending with a slight breeze.Could have stopped down to get a better depth of field, but would not have gotten the soft background as captured.

I have been away from photography for quite a while...I wish I could be back soon.

Here is another shot at steptoe butte state park taken this May. A single exposure was enough for this scene. Again, this is one of the most amazing sunset I have ever seen.

I had a weak moment - shot some flowers.

A scanograph I created as a way to try to cope and express what I can't find the words to explain.

CN 2306 leads a Westbound IMS train through Martel on the CN Ashcroft Sub. The 2306 has had some touch up work done giving it the look of a bleeding nose lol.

Wild bleeding heart, Dicentra formosa, in bloom now in Crescent Park.

Bleeding Hearts, the poetically named perennials, have heart shaped pendant pink or white flowers with spurs at the base and fernlike attractive foliage.

Dicentra spectabilis is the showiest, but its flowers finish in spring and its foliage disappears in midsummer. Other species continue to bloom all summer.

We saw this on our hike in Wells Gray Park in British Columbia. It's a Bleeding Tooth Fungus. Thick red fluid oozes through its tiny pores, creating the appearance of blood. 😳
