Spring flowers in my backyard. I am not sure of the identification of the white, yellow, orange, blue, and purple ones. Any help with the ID is appreciated. The red flower is an Italian or crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum), a perennial from the wildflower mix that I planted last year. I remember it was one of the first to show up at that time.

I am a scientist by training (Eckerd College, BSc; Caltech, Ph.D.). I worked for 27 years as a Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry developing processes to manufacture medicines for human and animal health. I now spend my time as a photographer and world traveler. My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.
