Some species of Lonicera (maybe L. japonica?) out back, midsummer this year. Could become a problem for native species if left unchecked, so I'll keep an eye on it.

I like the first image more because it puts the focus more squarely (see what I did there?) on the flower, but there's something about that vertical crop that I also really like. I think it's the leafy vine that shoots out toward the right edge of the frame. Anyway, I like both, so y'all get both 😁

The framing with that leafy vine reaching to the right really makes the vertical shot stand out.
