In this different angle from the scene depicted two posts ago in Benchwarmers, an opportunistic Echinacea bloom finds sunlight through the slats of a wooden bench, while another bloom seems to ponder a similar course. Photographed in Sleepy Hollow, New York, August 1, 2014. Higher resolution versions of this photo can be viewed at 500px.com.
