Paradise Island, Nassau, Bahamas. From last March's visit, one of many blooms on the island. Pretty to look at, oleander is poisonous. So, we only look - enjoy

They certainly are beautiful flowers, Thad. I recall that CT was in the grips of winter last March..nothing better than a little R&R in the Bahamas. Well done.

I didn't realize they were poisonous Thad. Proof that everything beautiful is not always good for you.
Wonderful shot.

Such a luring to touch and smell - gorgeous blossom and looks like velvet. Fantastic close up and colours - what a beauty to capture. I enjoyed Nassau, it's totally wonderful

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
