This annual Begonia was one of the first blooms in my garden. I like the vibrant colors of Begonias. Comments appreciated.

Wow..What striking colors, Albert. At first I thought this might be a Rose but was pleasantly surprised to see a Begonia instead. :cool:

What beautiful color and lines, and I especially like the way it's set off with the touch of yellow. Beautifully done Albert.

Albert what fine colors the the image is aflame with them. That being said I wonder what a vertical orientation would do to this image, I'll bet it would enhance it's representation of a flower in flames. I mean if your personal taste goes that way.
