Seeing Red!

Beauty pure and simple

Mother Nature gets to take the credit for this elegant beauty. I benefited by having a camera on hand. The shadow from the stamen? An added bonus!

Every week, a group of us from around the world post our shadow shots over at Hey Harriet. Entertain your muse by stopping by to see what others have posted!

Even the shadow
cast by the stamen glows red—
pulsating scarlet.

What a beautiful scarlet shadow shot, the stamen stands like a flag.

Nice one! I really like the red and the perfect little stamen shadow. I must now go look at the enlarged version like 'Bryan' did!
