I held this hibiscus in my hand in the sunshine with the breezes blowing. I snapped about 20 shots, the wind moving the shadows from spot to spot. some were solid when in the shade and to bright in others and these were with moving shadows on them.

What a wonderful vibrant colour. We could do with some of your sunshine here if you've got some to spare. lol

Wish I could claim hibiscus blossoms were blooming in my garnens right now...but you'd know I was lying! ;)
I wish there were one just like that growing next to me in a pot.
huge, beautiful bloom! lucky lady! we can only keep them thru summer and must drag them inside for winter. i tried that one year and they brought all sorts of bugs in, too, so out they went. :)
oh beautiful, beautiful bloom please blow some sunshine my way.
beautiful just what I needed to brighten my day
Wow! That is gorgeous!
Great pictures. I find red flowers difficult to get good pictures of and these are excellent.
Hibiscus make such a strong statement in the garden. Too bad they don't winter over up here.
Looking at that gorgeous specimen would brighten anyone's day!
Beautiful! I love the addition of the hand, that makes it perfect! Of COURSE since we are alike (what with Baby recently getting so sick), will you pray for our cat Sunny? He has stopped grooming and for the last three days he cannot jump. He tried to jump on the counter and fell. Now he can't even make it to the couch without help. Ever since Cher died, it has seemed like he wants to die. I think he is too young for arthritis. We are taking him to the vet at 4:20.
Pretty! Saw some light pink hibiscus here in SoCal and they look so fragile. Have to take some photos. Golden Woofs
How beautiful!!! We still have a few flowers blooming here in Texas - but not many and nothing compared to yours!
I hope to plant some more of the sturdy flowers we found that worked well last year. Heat and drought tolerant....mostly!
You still have such beautiful color in winter! this flower in the wind reminds me of a little pretty windmill.
Man that made me feel soooooooooo warm on this cold day - just beautiful!
I am ready to see those in real life!
The bloom is such a vibrant colour. Glad you've got a bit of a refreshing breeze as well as sunshine. Here it's blowing a gale around our hills! Have a good day, Sandra.
Glorious colors on that beautiful blossom. I love every one of the pictures. Can't wait till spring to see some real live colors but I am sure enjoying yours that you share and thank you for doing so...cheers me up. Hugs sweet Sandra
Lovely, such a big bloom!
I really love those flowers, their colour is amazing. Hope you're doing good. I am back at work again after my break. Enjoy your week ahead :)
Ahhhh...those balmy Florida breezes...they are awesome!...:)JP
Very pretty! We have had a LOT of fog and drizzle the last few days.
Ella's baby brother was born earlier this a.m. in Calif. Cole weighs 7 lbs and he and mommy are doing well!
