I decided to hike into the South Fork of Teton Canyon in search of Columbine photos as they were probably about at their peak. I found lots of flowers. With the Blue Columbine being my favorite, I wanted to try some different approaches to photographing this beautiful flower.

I had never photographed this, or any other, flower from behind so I decided I would work that composition for a bit. As with most photos of a single flower, I find that the background is what makes or breaks the photo. Two options I like are depicted in these two photos.
