These are from Calla Villa, Hibiscus is a very popular flower, I am going to try to eventually get representative photos of all the various variants.

Beautiful shots. ‘Please sir, can I have some more?’ Especially the colors. When I paint flowers I find composition in my art. Colors and an unexpected angle...well, the cat likes my paintings anyways.

I expect your cat has excellent taste.

Thank you.

I think of photography as the opposite of painting. When you paint you carefully add content to the image until it shows exactly what you want, and no more.

With photography, the photographer tries to exclude content from the image and through various tricks attempts to focus the viewer on the content the photographer wants them to look at.
