Poppy

This is the only one of a little patch of poppies I found growing near my house, on a patch of wasteland, that didn't get destroyed by yesterday's terrible winds and rain. I picked it and took it indoors to photograph.

Captured in natural window light, using a textured piece of card as a background.

I gave up trying to get onto IP yesterday, but after a few hours of trying on and off today I finally got on the site around 4pm. It's still very slow though.
