A beautiful mallow or hollyhock. I think mallows may be in the hollyhock family, but I'm not sure. My gram used to have these and I love picking the seed pods when the flowers were past. Lovely colors in your image.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

The flower is pretty, but the leaf in the foreground takes away from the rest of the focus on the blossom. No doubt it is a beauty! Hope you have access to more photo ops, watch that foreground and macro away!
What a nice shot. I think I would have pulled the wilted petals off as it pulls your eye from the center. Now I like the green leaf in the foregound, so I guess it is a personal preference thing.
