Hibiscus

It has been a very hot day today and I have been at a friends house teaching her how to use Photoshop.

I posted a flower photo yesterday and as you know that doesn't happen too often, so I thought I would post this hibiscus today to stop yesterday's flower from feeling lonely.

I hope I have identified this one correctly because as you know I am not too good on identifying flowers.

I thought the three flowers together looked so pretty in the bright sunlight.

I probably won't post another flower for quite a while, so at least I will have two in this years album.

You have done well Babs correct with Hibiscus... and a lovely one at that ..

[Babs]

@julzmaioro Phew!

[Sharon]

The red looks so pretty against the green leaves. Hibiscus is such a beautiful flower.

[Ethel]

You frame your shots so well and I feel there is no apology needed for photographing flowers. They are just objects with light falling on them. Amazing how much joy they give us.

[Dianne]

A lovely trio of colour.

[Nadiya Bilovodenko]

beautiful photo, it seems to me you can feel the aroma

[Sally Ings]

Super details

[Sheralee S]

[sally agnew]

A lovely vibrant colour Babs :)

[Joyce]

Beautiful colours and sunshine! Wet, cold and windy here!

[Babs]

@peterday Not had grey days or rain for a while. It is very hot here at the moment. We desperately need some rain. Had our first bushfire locally just over a week ago after a lightning strike, but only 1 mm rain with that brief storm and the fire is still burning but under control.

[Dione Giorgio]

You are correct about the name. I have one just like it. Beautiful capture of these lovely flowers. I am waiting for mine to start to bloom.

The three flowers look so good together. They are Hibiscus- I had one years ago rescued from the bin at New Covent Garden flower market and thought it very exotic!
