Once again, I am saddened by the fact that I am out of 6-star ratings. This is fabulous! I love the colors and clarity, composition is great and you framed it well. It deserves 6 stars. Great work.

Comment from AvidPhotographer
Very pretty! Is it hibiscus or Gumamela? I love those flowers. They are simple but very beautiful. Nice vibrant yellow color with a wonderful bloom. Great angle and rule of thirds. Clearly defined subject.

How lovely. Well framed, good sharpness and depth of field, great contrast. A most enjoyable image. The pollen laden center, the new buds awaiting their turn to bloom make this a most beautiful shot.
