This week’s photo challenge is twist. The rays of this wild purple coneflower seem be slowly unfurling — with a twist — in the shadows of the Ouachita Mountain woodlands.

What a different view of the cone flower. I love this!
Thanks! Sometimes it pays to catch flowers before their peak. This one’s lovely entangled rays were too good to pass up.
Nice depth in this photo and a beautiful twist 🙂
Thank you! I don’t ever recall seeing these flowers bloom twisting.
