The more I photograph flowers, the more I learn about them and the families they belong to. The Ranunculus or buttercup family is one that I’ve discovered I like an awful lot of flowers that are members of the family! So often I photograph a flower at a garden and then come home to learn that it too is a member of the Ranculus family. Here are a few more photos of flowers in this wonderful family.
