Default Birthday Delivery!

Flowers are always an appreciated gift! It was much more fun to shoot them closeup individually than as a whole.

Oooh so colorful! The 2nd one reminds me of a cave (well it's quite obvious it's a rose dont worry haha). I almost want to go in there and explore what's in those dark crevices. Probably pollen...
