Nicely lit. We get almost identical flowers like that here in Oz, just growing beside the road. Colour variations are from yellow to red.

It's what we call a Gazania.

Nice shot!

Nice! I like how well the colors lit by the sun (not washed out) and the contrast of the greenery in the background!
Nice shot Bob! Tom

I generally find yellow a difficult colour with flowers, you've done it very well here, good job.

cheers

Might be a simple flower but it's a picture well taken.

Bob, nice capture, there is no such thing as a simple flower, each has its own beauty and it up the photog to capture that individual beauty and you have done a fine job again........Cliff

Nice contrast Bob.

Hey thanks Tom, we had nice light yesterday and it was hitting the flower perfectly. I didn't do nothing but push the button.
