My wife and I recently returned from a driving trip to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Arches, and Mesa Verde National Parks. I took a lot of photos, some good, some not as good. The advantage of digital photography is you can take plenty of shots and only save the ones you like.
During our tour of Yellowstone someone suggested I share some of my wildflower photos. Gladly, but, there’s a problem. I’m not a botanist or a naturalist and I don’t know what many of the flowers are.
So, I think this blog can accomplish three objectives:
- Identify wildflowers, first my own, and then photos taken by others. Using reader’s comments to narrow down the possible flowers. (Your help is needed.)
- Share my photos with fellow tour travellers who put up with me wandering off or slowing the hike down as I took photos.
- Give other casual photographers some support by showing that not all flower photographs come out perfect.
My later posts will actually have flowers in them, but to start: 
Keep in mind that not everyone sees flowers, some residents of national parks see ”FOOD.”
By the way, all these photos can be clicked on, to see other sizes. I’ve stored them as part of a Flickr photostream.
