Alpine meadow
A sunrise in Dolomites.... This photo was taken at one of the nicest hiking areas of Dolomites, Alpe di Siusi or Seiser Alm. End of June and early July these meadows are abundant with wildflowers and I love to come there to photograph close ups. This shot is unusual for me, it was more of an experiment but it turned out well. I like it a lot, silhouetted mountains and meadow details... The Arnica flowers are the yellow ones that stand out..

"Arnica montana" is a moderately toxic European flowering plant in the daisy family Asteraceae. It is noted for its large yellow flower head. The names "wolf's bane" and "leopard's bane" are also used for another plant, aconitum, which is extremely poisonous.
