November 16th, 2012: Flaming Glorybower (Clerodendrum splendens) by Dinu
Wow! Thanks petralittledog. You know what? It was with the borrowed Sony Mavica 10 years or so ago. I have planted an off shoot of this in my new garden space, also along the wall. It should climb up on to the wire along the wall. I was so happy with the quality of the shot at that time... and see now, how digital cameras have improved!
I dug up my archives and found a few images when technology had improved [digital cam].
I love this bloom! What a color! Your new photo is gorgeous Dinu!
Thanks Kell. The red on this one is unique.
