I am attaching two photos of the same flower. The first taken with my camera (SP570) and the second with my son's (Panasonic) which is more true to life, a deep red. The third is one I found from earlier which shows the pinky/purply hue that I always seem to get. Hope you can help a newbie to photography!.
