Pretty flowers

These flowers are on trees in the parking lot of the bank building. I have no idea what they are. Only my ps camera today as I left for work at 6 a.m. to do statements. I was thinking of hitting the sack early when I realized I hadn't posted.

Hey Joan- Sorry for being so late to the get pushed party. I loved your onion shot so this week concentrate on lines. Find symmetry in lines and use them creatively for your challenge. :)

Beautiful shot and great color!

[Lisa Poland]

Very pretty!

@katiebrenkert What an interesting challenge. People have noticed lines in my photos so now I need to see them first.

@kbird61 @homeschoolmom Thank you

[Francoise]

tree books out tongiht, I guess! I've never seen this leaf/flower. But they are indeed pretty.

@francoise Decided to look it up and it is Red Hawthorne.

[William F Boyea]

Nice shot. Looking at the thumbnails on the side here. You should not have a problem with lines. But to use them creatively would mean to control them some how and that might be the hard part.

Nice dof Joan and good composition

[Lyn Berriman]

Just fabulous! Fav for me.

[KWind]

[Sharron Green]

Very pretty tree, unusual flower. So glad you discovered it was a red Hawthorne so I did not have to look it up-I was curious!

@atwinfay I was hoping someone would do the work for me but it turned out to be real easty.

[Joan Robillard]

@kwind Thank you because as usual there was a breeze and several are blurry.

[Joan Robillard]

@lynnilou I hope you are enjoying Maine as much as I am So Africa.

@pjr The thing I hate about my ps is you are not looking through the lens that the camera takes the picture from. So sometimes I don't get a good composition.
