Morning flowers

2008.07.16
This is from my neighbor's yard he says it is a weed, if it is a weed it's certainly got some beautiful color to it.

Don't know the name of this one, but it's very colorful.

Another delicate, nameless variety of beauty.



I took these photos in late afternoon and used my flash to bring out the color. To get the stark black background I used a black trash bag stretched very tight, this is a old trick I learned from a old photographer friend. I keep a black and white trash bag in my camera bag when I want a nice background to cut out background items I don't want in my photo. Try it it's fun to experiment.

jenjung the trash bags are a great idea, i will have to do the same! i didn't know hibiscus were considered weeds...well, i guess any plant you don't want is basically a weed : )
