Fading beauty

This flower was fading, but I thought its color was still beautiful. There just aren’t too many flowers around in August that are worth photographing, but I keep looking!

Best to view in "Original" or “Auto” because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

It is quite striking. The color on the tips of the petals is vibrant. V

The colours are lovely. Not surprised it's fading in the summer heat. V
