Bunchberry Ground Cover

Bunchberry Detail
(Canon 5d, 24-105mm lens)

These bunchberry flowers covered large areas of underbrush almost everywhere I went along the north coast of Lake Superior. At first glance they reminded me of dogwood blossoms. In fact, they are in the dogwood family and produce a bright red, edible berry later in the summer.

I thought the broken light in this patch of blooms made them especially artistic.
