A slipper fit for a princess

A slipper fit for a princess
I was happy to come across several of these beautiful little Calypso Orchids on 10 June 2011, when I drove out west of Calgary to Maclean Pond, Kananaskis, off Elbow Falls Trail. They are such exquisite wildflowers! Unfortunately, a single flowerhead doesn't quite fit into a macro photo, but I have to balance that with getting a blurred background.
