The typical New England aster is purple, but some are pink, like this one. To try something different, I took this in direct, late afternoon sun to get these yellows - and I had to reduce saturation a bit.

Beautiful Tom. I really like the abstract nature of this one and just a little bit of focus on the tips of these petals works perfectly. Lovely colors too..
