Growing in a meadow of conspecifics as can be seen in the second picture. The images don't give their bright purple colouration justice.

The flower looks like Epilobium angustifolium, or a related Epilobium.

Thanks Marta :) I guess I'll have to credit the flower on that one.

I am not so good with flower IDs but I have to say I really like the colors of this picture :-)
