Fondest memories of my Texas Rio Grande hunt near Llano. It was an unusually wet Spring, and I just had to capture the stunning wildflowers. The look of absolute horror on my Guide's face when he saw what I was doing instantly registered on me of how foolish my actions were.
This image (not mine) brought that moment back with an adrenaline rush......

Why is photographing rattlesnakes in blue bonnets foolish?

Or do you mean something different when you say "capturing the stunning wildflowers?"

He means that he didn’t “think” there might be rattlesnakes around and was just focused on all the pretty wild flowers! Drop your situational awareness and that’s when you get bit!
Down here in Texas, you don’t just blithely go for a walk!o_O

JoshB is correct! Forgot all about the "Danger Noodles" trying to get intimate images of the Blue Bells. I was dead (pun unavoidable) in the middle of a denning area.
