I made this picture in the garden of our friends. Begonia is a genus in the flowering plant family Begoniaceae. The only other member of the family Begoniaceae is Hillebrandia, a genus with a single species in the Hawaiian Islands. The genus Symbegonia is now included in Begonia. "Begonia" is the common name as well as the generic name for all members of the genus.The plants are monoecious, with unisexual male and female flowers occurring separately on the same plant, the male containing numerous stamens, the female having a large inferior ovary and two to four branched or twisted stigmas.

to view my gallery pages, be sure that your setting at the bottom of the page is set to 1024x768 or lower.
Very nice and sharp. The hint of pink and the reds add to the white flower and enhance it. Very good.

The coloration on the main blossom is so delicate, wonderful job with this image, Wil! I'd really be interested in knowing how you get that special glow around your flowers.

We make a living by what we get; but we make a life by what we give.
Wil, you certainly know alot about flowers . Very interesting facts about these and what a beautiful capture this is. It just looks so soft and the colors are simply gorgeous.

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unawares
This delicately tinged beauty has been handled so well by you in this post, and I have nothing critical to say about it at all. You've done a superior job on the presentation, from the flower to the leaves and the wonderfully blurred background to the light frame. Thanks for this..in my faves :)PJ

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.

What a beauties. It looks very similar to a rose. The petals seem so delicate and elegant at the same time. I like the soft focus effect you added.

De Begonia vind ik zo al een mooie bloem, maar door deze bewerking is hij helemaal mooi geworden. De Begonia heeft nu iets mysterieus.
The Begonia finds I this way already a beautiful flower, but by this version he has become entirely beautiful. The Begonia has now something mysteriously.

joy is not in things, it's in us !!!
This is really beautiful, Wil. It does appear as though the begonia has a softening glow. Love the touch of pink surrounding the white blossoms. Framing is very nice too :) Well done!

"Begonia" is an exquisite image to me, Wil. I like everything about it. The pinks are so rich. Your presentation is perfect and the framing draws one's attention to the entire subject...........Neil
