A Single Bloom – a Single Image (3)

A blood red amaryllis bloom basks in the late afternoon sun.

For man, as for flower and beast and bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly, most perfectly alive.

    Stunning, Ron, with that light and those shadows. And it’s so hard to capture red successfully in photos! Great. 🙂

      Thanks Cathy. You’re.right, but this deeper red held up better than most.

      I do too, but this one didn’t bloom for me this year. Guess I need to show it more love.

      How poetic! Thanks Carol. I photographed the amaryllis some time ago and forgot about them until recently.
