3 more pictures above in notes! :)

The poppy show is still in full swing over here, and this morning I was beside myself with excitement when I bounced outside to see what had bloomed. I'd been waiting for a certain flower to bloom and today was the day!! To explain, on the 4th of July, Steve and I had to be out of the house by 8:00 and I had absolutely no time to take pictures that morning. I just about cried when I saw that an enormous pink poppy had opened up and was positively glowing in the morning light. However, I knew that plant had several other bud-pods growing and I would get another chance to take pictures. This morning another one opened up and I was so excited and happy!!

Audrey Hepburn (born Audrey Kathleen Ruston; 4 May 1929 – 20 January 1993) was a British actress and humanitarian. Recognised as both a film and fashion icon, Hepburn was active during Hollywood's Golden Age. She has since been ranked as the third greatest female screen legend in the history of American cinema and been placed in the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame.Wkipedia: Audrey Hepburn

A beautiful foursome today, Janet. This poppy is so lovely, I can understand how you wanted to show it in all its facets. In this image I love how the backlighting shows the hairs on the stems of the flower. And the droplets, they take on a very different look when backlit, almost like little holes. How wonderful.
