Thank you Cee for giving me an excuse to go into my garden and look closely at everything I might otherwise overlook.  I had no idea that my Royal Poinciana was blooming so beautifully , nor that my bougainvillea had grown up to intertwine with it. I took a few dozen shots of things I would have missed out on if I hadn’t decided to do your daily flower prompt. I know how many hours a day you must devote to your prompts and connecting with each person who enters your challenges.  I’m sure others must feel as I do.  It is nice to have a prod to exit our computer screens and to get out to commune with nature.

This Spanish Dancer Hibiscus has been giving me luxurious and gorgeous new blooms every day for weeks.  I stopped taking photos of them because I’ve photographed them a number of times before, but today I just had to record their beauty one more time.  This closeup was one of my favorites.  You’ll see others in the days to come.
