Default More Boring Flowers

Ok, so I do seem to be stuck on flowers. Hey, they don't move or run out of view or just refuse to pose. Makes things so much easier.

This unusual looking thing is a Spider Lily. It was on the side of a very busy road but of course I had to stop and take a pic----

A newly opened Hibiscus bloom in my favorite colors---

And the heart of the same Hibiscus----

One beautiful red Rose sprinkled with love---

Enjoy, and I hope you're not getting tired of flowers.

Wow, those are just lovely. Wish I could do framing like that. No way to pick a favorite, they are all wonderful. Keep up the good work!
