I can only tell you it's not a rose. I know very little about flowers, however, this macro is impressive. I like how the colors soften from inside, out. That little touch of green, bottom left is slightly distracting. Otherwise....FANTASTICO SAM!
The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Sam, I saw it at once. It's an E²F²I,YV (Encrypted Early Foofy Friday Image, Yellow Version), lol.
Excellent macro with subtle tones, but, due to the bokeh, impossible to determine the name and species for me. It could be a yellow hibiscus, lavatera, or any other flower that has a similar integrated flower pistil and stamen, so a lot of solutions are possible.
I'm curious whether an other Caedes-friend will succeed in resolving this puzzle.

I ran your "flower" through our secret agents image identifier computer database and it came back, not a flower, but rather, it is an abnormal kiwi. Apparently, it has two human eyes, which may be seen above the yellow center in the green area. You have intentionally mislead all of the secret agents with all your flower talk and reprimands will be in the mail to you within the fortnight.
Blimey what is it a solar flare? I hope there aint no electo magnetic interference on it's way to earth, I don't wanna to loose my internet connection SAM!
