Pretty Flowers

Since Tucker and I go camping and hiking quite often, I've decided to start learning about some of the flowers and trees we come across during our excursions. During our last camping trip in the Okanagan, we saw Columbian Lilies (Lilium columbianum), some Western Columbine (Aquilegia formosa) and some Common Red Paintbrush (Castilleja miniata). My pictures of these beautiful flowers did not turn out so well, but I am quite proud of the Fireweed picture I took:
