 It's so hot here right now(105 today), there's almost no colorful flowers to be found unless you pour huge amounts of water on them. I "borrowed" these from my next door neighbor's yard. I added a couple of tupperware plastic cups in the background just to add some color...otherwise it would be all brown.

Lovely smooth colours, although a little more focus area would be easier to look at.
