I came across this jovial, tropical flower while I was trekking around Kualoa Ranch. It was actually on the ground and I almost stepped on it. I LOVED the variations of all the pinks and was amazed by it's intricate ... petals?
I don't know what kind of flower it is but I do know that it makes me happy. I had a hard time naming this one - I just couldn't find the right word that matched the feeling of this image. I would grab anyone that walked by my "creative space" and ask "how does this make you feel? " I got everything from "shy", "passion", "happy", "ocean", "firecracker", "makes me smile" and a "what is it!?" I love the "what is its" because it pulls the viewer in for a closer look! Then it hit me: it's jolly, happy and it pops ... jolliepops!
I hope it makes you smile too!
Your photography ALWAYS makes me smile.
