I found a cool site that has helped me to identify some of the beautiful flowers I've been fortunate to photograph. I'm still a novice so if you feel I have mis-identified a flower, please let me know so I can make the changes.
PURPLE
Canada Thistle (?)
Spider Wort
Thelypodium laxiflorum

Lovely wildflowers, Dorn. We had thistle growing in the yard, when we first moved here. They are beautiful flowers, and very hard to get rid of.
Those are very pretty. Good job. I like the seed pods amoung the flowers in the third one. I love nature and all kinds of flowers. Helen
The first one is a thistle....what variety I have no clue :(. I love taking photos of wildflowers!!!!

Dorn, someone who adored me gave me the nickname "Thistle" once. He said I was good and sturdy and...hard to get rid of? ;) C. http://journals.aol.com/gdireneoe/thedailies

Wildflowers (and weeds) are some of my favorite subjects. The bottom one looks like something I've always called cleome.
Very beautiful looking wildflower arrangement. I like the tranlucent oval borders. mark
