Kissed by the Sun

What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. - Joseph Addison

I have been trying all summer to get "just the right shot" of my tropical hibiscus. This view of sunshine on my flower made me smile and think "this is it"!

I cropped this just a tad, but it is sooc.
