The limited depth of field really works here. Nicely done!
When we come to place where the sea and the sky collide
Throw me over the edge and let my spirit glide

Beautiful! I love flower photos - does anyone know what type of flower this is . . .
(sorry it's sideways!)

Thanks for the picture. Plumeria is my favorite tropical flower ever since we saw it years ago in St Vincent. There were several trees on the resort grounds with different combinations of colors - yellow & white, pink & white, and one with pink, yellow and white all in the same flower.
What a great idea to make the picture of the week your desktop for the week, so you can enjoy it all week. I'm going to do that.

patr, that puffy flower is a calliandra--often called "powder-puff", for obvious reasons.

Thanks Hugo!
Do you know if it is related to the Mimosa tree that is common here in the Midwest?
