Floral Glow

This should be an easy flower to identify, care to take a guess?  🙂

It was also extremely frustrating to shoot because I was doing it handheld (we were in a enclosed garden), and I didn't have a tripod handy.  Lots of grumbling, but I finally managed to nab a non-blurry shot.

Good night from Tokyo!  🙂

    One of my favorites too!  Several years ago at one of the shrines, saw an exhibit with morning glories as big as saucers.  Then we went to Oz and would you believe that there they are considered weeds and you'll find nary a one for sale.  Later we spotted a lone intruder bravely growing at a school and I so wished I could have gotten one of the seeds 🙂

    +Peggy M , maybe you can ask some of your friends there to ship you a couple seeds 🙂

    That's when we were in Oz.  Here, nothing will stand up to the wind that blows off the ocean…the poor morning glories would be in mourning 😛
