Hybiscus Close Up

This is a close up I took of a beautiful large hybiscus blossom. The sun was shining behind it, making the pedals appear translucent a bit.

Beautifully bright macro!

Artist Reply: Thank you MJ! The sun was in just the spot to shine thorugh tthis blossom when I went in for a close up. It seemed to help soften the blossom up just perfect. My daughter saw this and thought how lovely it would be as a fabric textile to wear.
