It may have been raining but what a joy to see these in the park.

Dear friends, thank you very much for your visit, faves and kind comments!

Taken with a Nikon D90 and a Sigma 105mm Macro in the garden. Just a little bit of postprocessing in Lightroom. Does anyone know the name of the flower?

"'Tis like the birthday of the world,

When earth was born in bloom;

The light is made of many dyes,

The air is all perfume:

There's crimson buds, and white and blue,

The very rainbow showers

Have turned to blossoms where they fell,

And sown the earth with flowers."

- Thomas Hood
