This is strange variety of mum I found at the Botanic Garden a couple of years ago. I tried a few tricks in editing - a little Orton etc. Weird seemed a good choice for this Foofy Friday. All comments and critiques appreciated.

Unusual as well. I never would have taken this for a mum. It is exotic. Nicely composed shot, Kathy.

It looks like a piece of jewelry of some kind. Beautiful shot of the mum, Kathy.

Kathy - This mum isn't mum - it's calling out to be seen with its bold colors. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

Most kids think their moms are weird, it's a phase they eventually get over. The kids that is, not the moms they're just plain weird.
An interesting capture and flower you have, Kathy. Lovely colours and presentation.

The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does. ~William Blake

Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
