And they smell lovely too and there's a bush closeby that has small white flowers and smells like honeysuckle.

Man that's good! So clean and crisp and love the shadows on the petals with the stark black background. Is this the same thing as plumeria?

That may be it's proper name but it does come in a lot of varieties.

Jerry, yes, Plumeria is the "proper" name for frangipani. Several species, many hybrids in a lot of colors! I have several of them (none as gorgeous as EM's, however). The flowers on my red one smell like roses, different colored flowers have different but wonderful fragrances. The trees go dormant in the winter.

No comment!

I see your at it again, show us your trash basket (that's recycle bin for windys users) of the not used images, if you dare.

The damned high quality you seem to get in all your floral images, I'd think I would be looking to link up with the uses of such images and start to reap some returns, they're certainly good enough.
