Very well presented and the off-centre composition is a plus. Red is a hard colour to deal with, as I (and probably many others to) have found. Still, this is bright and has seasonal overtones. I like it.

super cool shot! I like the composition a lot. Nice colors... I might like it with a bit darker background but nevertheless, a nice shot!

A very fine capture of the Sturt Desert Pea - This species, a member of the pea family, Fabaceae, is confined to Australia, where it occurs in all mainland States except Victoria. A creeping vine that runs along the ground.Captain Charles Sturt (1795-1869) noted the occurrence of Swainsona formosa in 1844 while exploring between Adelaide and central Australia, and the common name, Sturt's Desert Pea, commemorates a notable explorer of inland Australia, as well as indicating the plant's habitat and family. Sturt's journal, Narrative of an Expedition into Central Australia, refers several times to the beauty of the desert pea in flower and the harsh nature of its habitat.
"we saw that beautiful flower the Clianthus formosa [sic] in splendid blossom on the plains. It was growing amid barrenness and decay, but its long runners were covered with flowers that gave a crimson tint to the ground". Lyn.

For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, His eternal power and Godhead;... Rom 1:20
I got this one in the voting booth and game it high marks, I like the black frame, it sets off the center of the flowers.
