I took this a few weeks ago on my birthday - it's unusual for zinnias to be in full bloom around my birthday. They usually come at the end of July and first part of August. Our hot summer again pushing things along. I like this zinnia's tiered petals of different shades of pink.

Nice color and good focus on the zinnia. Also a good bokeh in this shot Kathy.

She looks like she is floating, and I can almost feel the texture of her lovely petals. tigs=^..^=

Two words leap to mind when viewing your photo here, Kathy..

'Colour contrasts'.

And.. in spades.


Nice one. :o)

It's a 'Super Queen' because she has seven crowns, lol.
Beautiful capture (as usual) of this special Zinnia this time. Very well done, my friend.

A great close up on the lovely zinnia, Kathy. Beautiful colours and nice clarity in the photo.
