Thanks to Colin for identifying the chive - once again a show of ignorance from me. A useful and beautiful flower, and native to southern Finnish coasts - but often an escapee from gardens as well.
We had rain today, and nature was beautiful afterwards. We run into several unknown flowers - once again a time to pick up a plant guide. The first once is from a garden, the rest natural flowers (or so I think).
When I know the name of the flower I try to name the photographs accordingly, but when I don't, I use names such as 'mystery flower' or 'white beauty'.
Update: The 'white beauty' is Stellaria graminea, a common European flower.

Nice shots, especially "bell" with the rain drop. Seems you've got a purple theme going!
"Bell" is Campanula patula, very common on meadows here in Finland.
