Some pretty Hibiscus at the Lakeside Rose Gardens. Besides roses they do have arrangements of different types of flowers.

Have a great sunday!

I like the composition of this one, having two flowers opened up, a bud getting close, and a new bud with a little more time to go. The colors and the lighting...and the focus are super. Excellent work, Sandi.

They truly are lovely, Sandi! I'm especially enjoying the lighting and vivid shade of orange/red in these beauties! I also really like the inclusion of the unopened bud, and your offset framing!
