Taken early morning in June 2008 at Oxwich Burrows. I think the other flowers are yellow rattle (Rhinantus minor) (on the left) and Cat's-ear (Hypochoeris radicata). Canon EOS 40D, Sigma 105mm macro lens, Manfrotto tripod. Exposure F5.6 at 1/400sec. Original image in Raw format, cropped slightly to 3764x2509 pixels.
