I really liked the colour of this flower when I was photographing it, but I fell in love with it when editing. The intricacy of the stigma is amazing and the colours are stunning up close.

Gorgeous shots! And beautiful flower. It reminds me a bit of hibiscus; the furled petals and protruding stamen. But I’m notoriously rubbish at botanical stuff, so take anything I say with a bag of salt 🙂

LOL a whole bag! I’m rubbish at it as well. But I bet it’s related to the hibiscus somehow. Thanks so much.

Thanks Terri. I thought that I should have removed the webs but at least it’s authentic, right?! 😜
