The bloom of the hills

Another beauty of the range, the purple, spiny blooms defined the beauty of the whole area and with the magnificent hills and the clouds playing around in the backdrop, the scene had to be framed. For a change I decided to emphasize the flowering plants over the hills and attempted this frame with the wide angle lens

Nice. I feel a little less space at the bottom and a bit more at the top to include the top branches of the tree in the background would be good (closure effect). Also that would help to see more of the clouds. Thanks for sharing.
