cyclamen

i think that's the name of this flower, but if i'm wrong, you please tell me and i will change my title.

took this at lunchtime. one of the big banks in downtown toronto has this little plaza and they have a mini garden. good thing i have the coolpix in my purse.

sooc but for the name tag.

I believe that the name is right . . and aren't you smart to carry that little p&s around. I stopped. Too easy for me to get hooked on mine again. I love this one of yours tho..such a nice pop of color this time of year for us "northerners!"

[Terry]

I had to fave this, the vivid color, the amazing detail, the POV. it has it all

[Echoia]

Oh, wow- that's great color!

@karenann - thank you, karenann. actually it is the canon that i always carry with me but today i was too lazy because i thought i wasn't going to be taking any photos so i left it. but coolpix is cool for vivid colours like this.

@sarasdadandmom - it's the camera's fault! :-) thank you, my friend.

[summerfield]

@echoia - thank you, i appreciate that.

I'm not familiar with the name of this plant, but the color is fantastic!

[summerfield]

@olivetreeann - thank you, ann. i think that for food and flowers, i will use the coolpix. it does take on the actual colours of the subject and that is what i like.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@summerfield You know, I think my Canon powershot took better photos than the Nikon in the same way.

[Dixie Goode]

This is not a plant with a name I know but I love how vividly feminine it looks

[jenny tucker]

[Jann]
