Lance Leaved Centaury

This pretty bog flower can be found blooming in late June and July throughout the Pine Barrens.  I came upon this subject as I was walking around in one of my favorite bog spots.  It was a breezy day and taking flower shots was tough.  Using a 100mm macro I was only able to open the lens up to 1/60 @f8 - I wanted a tad of depth. Since I spot metered for the white and had to overexpose, that didn't help with battling the wind dilemma.  I was able to successfully grab 3 shots.
