Yellow Hibiscus

I've been admiring the yellow hibiscus flowers in two gardens that I pass as I walk to and from the railway station. Just a day ago (Friday), as I walked home, the light seemed more perfect than usual, and the colours beautifully subtle. This is the best of a few images of this flower - they never seem to be quite perfect .

I cropped this quite tightly to the leaves on either side of the flower, in an attempt to show what appears to me as a "glow" around their edges. I'm really very pleased with this. I hope it pleases.

Edit: So glad I captured this image when I did - on Monday, as I walked to the station, the hedge containing this flower had been severely pruned, and this flower is no longer there. It made me sad, but also pleased that I had captured an image of such fleeting beauty.
