Stunning, excellent photo, Cindy, the colour, so vivid!

I love Hibiscus. They are so pretty. This one is no exception!

You have truly mastered the depth of field here Cindy. I am impressed that you have captured the whole flower and still maintained the smooth background. Nicely done.

Thank you, Pete, Hal and Lennart.
Hal, I have this big Hibiscus plant and I've been waiting all summer to take a photo. I waited till a very cloudy day...the sky was like a huge softbox. My camera does handle reds well, but the light can not be too harsh or the reds will still blow out.

A great close up Cindy! Love the red and green colors also in the background!

This is beautiful Cindy. Your camera handles the reds very well.
A beautifully composed close-up

Lovely testures on the petals and very clear across the whole bloom, super shot.
