Lovely.
The high shutter speed combined with the wide aperture has allowed you to capture this beautifully. Compositionally the repeating blue colour draws the viewer's eyes in and entices them to spend some time enjoying the image.

Outstanding use of controlled color, and a great composition. I really like it.

Lovely!! I haven't seen any bluebonnets but this inspires me to hit the back roads looking.

Thanks, folks.

jaxx419: they'll be gone soon, so you'll have to hurry.

Yep. I located a huge field perfect for photos. Two weeks later all gone. Few that were left were overgrown by the grass.
