This is a Rose of Sharon blossom on another bush from a previous photo. The water beads caught my eye. Shot with a 18-55 mm lens with a 12 mm extension tube.
There is some amazing detail in this photo. I like how the red part of the flower seems to showcase the fancy stamen, as if advertising and drawing in any potential visitors.
