I really love the contrast between the pinkiness and dark leaves in the background. I also love the bright red splash of colour in the middle although it almost looks like its bleeding.

Sharp details and good colours. The flower stands out against that background.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
A great capture with good colour & detail, Looks nice against the darker background.
Well done.

It's not how many megapixels. But how you use the ones you have.
Beautiful shot of one of her beautiful blooms. My mothers plant is loaded this year too.

Great post Don. Wonderful colours and contrast. We have a similar hibiscus in our garden. The only pity is that the hibiscus flowers are gone that quickly.

This is lovely Don. You have captured the delicate pink perfectly in just the right amount of light. The clarity and composition are also spot on. Well done!
