Hybiscus are so lovely.Please use largest image possible to see this wonderful textured flower. This was a huge sized one, a unique variety. I decided to use a bit of special effects from Paint Shop, to bring out all the beauty even more. I hope you'll like it and give me some comments and critique. Thank you so much for taking a look.

For those of you who are just looking at this on THIS page, and don't enlarge...you are missing out on the beautiful textures to this image. Wonderful work again, Verena. Such a gorgeous foofy, and your editing skills are top notch.

Verena - A beautiful composition. The texture finish adds to the photo. The clarity and colors of this hyacinth are magnificent. Thad

This is beautiful Verena but I do think it is a type of Hibiscus not Hyacinth. I love the textures you got and the lovely deep red throat.
