Atlantis, Paradise Island, Bahamas. I haven't got a clue about what type of flower this is, but is was seen in abundance at Atlantis in the Bahamas. Happy Foofy Friday! Thank you, Kathy (trixxie17), for identifying these flowers as Ixora.

That red colour contrasts well with the green leaves Thad. Good one for foofy day.

It appears to be Ixora Thad - a member of the coffee family. I saw it and photographed it in Hawaii so it's a tropical. It's also known as West Indian jasmine. Beautiful shot!

If they are in abundance there, Thad, you can probably take a few home with you and start your own garden of these pretty foofies. I hope they will grow where you live! Gorgeous capture for Fx2!

Wonderful capture for Foofy Friday, Thad. Splendid color and perfect lighting.
My compliments go to Kathy too for 'identifying' the Ixora.

Wish you a Happy Foofy Friday too.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
