I'm not sure Raj, but this could be a species of the Zinnia elegans flower. Think that Kathy can confirm this (or not, ☺ ). Anyhow a wonderful one and very appropriate one for Foofy Friday.

I don't know the names of many flowers but zinnia sounds right to me too...and what a beautiful capture of this one...love everything about it...great work, Raj!
Anyhow a wonderful one and very appropriate one for Foofy Friday.
