Mountain Forget-Me-Not

Posted is a photograph of a mountain forget-me-not.  The tiny forget-me-not (about the size of your pinky fingernail) is the state flower of Alaska.  The mountain forget-me-not has a range that extends from Alaska down into Wyoming.  I captured this photograph in a meadow near my cabin early one summer morning.  The flower is bejeweled by a fine mist lifted from the water of a nearby creek.
