Two weeks ago Cheryl and I visited the Tire Mountain trail near Oakridge, Oregon, a great place to see June wildflowers. Among other things, there was plenty of Harsh Paintbrush (Castilleja hispida) in bloom, including this one.

Last week Cheryl and I visited the Tire Mountain trail near Oakridge, Oregon, a great place to see June wildflowers. Further information can be found at oregonwildflowers.org/viewlocation.php?ID=55.

I was torn between two slightly different studies, so I decided to keep both of them. I like this one because of the exposure of the trees and the better view of the hillside meadow in the mid-foreground.
