Red Hibiscus With Raindrops Case-Mate iPhone Case

An amazing red hibiscus bloom fills most of the photograph. The blossom was the size of a salad plate. Raindrops cover the petals. Shallow depth of field highlights the unusual pistil and stamen formation. Five round, dark red, fuzzy stigmas atop styles curve backwards at the end of the flower's central column which is covered with small yellow stamens. Behind the Fireball Hibiscus in the upper right corner, out-of-focus, tall, green grasses provide colour contrast. Digital, colour photograph. Copyright © 2010 Claire E. Skinner. All rights reserved.
