Flying little fairies in the forest

I call it a forest fairy. Because, the shape of this lovely flower looks like a fairy flying with outstretched her small wings. Don't you think so?

It is the plant indigenous to Japan, therefore, it doesn’t have English name.
In terms of the scientific classification, the plant is in the family of Ranunculaceae, and the binomial name is Anemonopsis macrophylla.
We call it "Renge-Shouma(蓮華升麻)" in Japanese.

Thank you for viewing in LARGE SIZE.
I wish you all a wonderful weekend.
