Isn't it great when you can find these along your merry way? I have never seen a hibiscus stamen turn up towards the sun like that before. They are all generally straight.

Thanks. All these were shot in RAW and hen converted to JPEG and hen resized to 600x400 pixels. I did not bother to crop nor adjust the color. I always see these flowers everyday and I am glad you liked them. HAve a nice day to all of you. I have to attend my class now.
