Said to be the colour of creativity orange is named after the orange fruit, introduced to Europe via the Sanskrit word nāranja. Before this was introduced to the English-speaking world, the colour was referred to (in Old English) as geoluhread, which translates into Modern English as yellow-red. Said to be the colour of creativity. Frank Sinatra said “Orange is the happiest color.” I guess others have said the same. it certainly makes me happy. . . This begonia was taken with Canon 450D. Hope it brings some happiness and creativity :)

I think you are right about the color orange being a happy color. Beautiful bloom. Critique: Sharper focus and detail.
