Photo Gallery - Red Flowers


Everyone likes flowers. We gift and greet each other with flowers. When we find it hard to say what are in our hearts, we use flowers to speak for us.

We like flowers so much we attempt to immortalize their beauty through drawings, paintings and photographs. Below are some of my favorite photos of red flowers. I hope that the close-up shots inspire us to look closer at the beauty around us so that we see not  just shapes and forms but also their very essence.

May the flowers' vibrant red hues brighten our day and  bring passion into everything we do.

    1. Ahhh...Thanks, Ariel! How very sweet of you, m'lady! Your post yesterday aroused the chauvinist in me, but I would rather you saw my chivalrous side...
