I love these flowers -- and the dreamy wide open rendition suits them well.

They have to be one of the species with the largest number of German nicknames. Wikipedia lists the following:

Jungfer im Grünen,
Gretl in der Stauden,
Gretchen im Busch,
Venushaarige,
Braut in Haaren,
Damaszener Schwarzkümmel,
Damaszener Kümmel,
Garten-Schwarzkümmel.

My wife gave me great flowers with a great decay path for my anniversary.

The holiday mood let me do some relaxed shooting session to preserve the beauty.
