Unfurled

Do you recognize this unfurled flower? If you guessed it's an Okra flower than you're correct. I love the simplicity of this image and the color palette. In the heat of this summertime, it's always amazing to see what plants hold up to the test of rising temperatures.

I enhanced this image with Topaz Simplicity-Painting Oil and a bit of work with Viveza. Simple, clean lines ... sometimes simple is best.

Camera is a Nikon D7000, handheld in the morning's hot sun. Your comments are always greatly appreciated. Stay cool.
