Indian Paintbrush

My mom spotted this flower and she had me stop an get some pictures of it.

 The flower in question is called Indian Paintbrush and it looks like this particular one is on its last legs but it still looks pretty cool.

 One thing I will have to say about my new lens is that I love the macro capability on it. 

 I really love the way the orange and red set off against the green.

And a shot of the flower from above.
