The Color Purple - Colors of Autumn

            "I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it."   Alice Walker

Centaurea nigra or it's common name Knapweed.  One for my Bokeh in the Front Yard series and not wanting to piss God off.  Taking another look through the files I think this shot of the Knapweed needs to be included in the series.  As I've stated before, my front yard is a mix of anything that wants to grow.  This is one of the plants/weeds that provides a bit of purple to the yard. It seems to mix well with the greens of the grasses and red of the Virginia creeper.  The bokeh was provided by the Oreston lens. 

BTW: The EXIF data is wrong, I used the Meyer Optik 50mm f/1.8 Oreston shot at f/1.8.  Getting to be a standard clause  as I rarely change the setting in the camera.
