Unknown Blossom III
Yet another flower from my visit to Royal Roads University gardens last month – this one is close to the main house on an arbour that leads to a stone gazebo. I don’t have a photo of the whole plant, so you will just have to know it was a very large trumpet shaped flower, lily-like in some respects, of the colour shown with red tinges on the outside of the petals, along the median ridge, and probably growing on a vine. If someone can guess the name from that description, then they are great at guessing, or went and had a look for themselves.
This time I am not hoping for an ID, so no one should strain their brains or libraries.

Wow. This is simple, and beautiful.

Thanks Melinda! Simple is a good thing to have in one’s life, somehow or another.

I really like these minimalist works that we see once in a while here. This is the type of photo I think many folks appreciate for it’s simplicity. I think this would work in black and white, too, but the yellow is striking. Maybe I’m just crazy for yellow.

Thank you Ken. I too like them. Not sure why I don’t take more. And, you are crazy for yellow. B&W had not occurred to me, I was partly photographing the colour.
