Hairy Crown Flower

At first, I thought this hairy flower is from a fruit bearing plant "guava" but after scrutinizing it closely, I found out that it's some kind of ornamental plant. And as usual I do not what it's called.

On times like this, doing some sort of flower name guessing, I always remember my mom who knows a lot about flowers, and she had memorized most of them but she's gone now I can't ask her anymore.

So for now, I'm doing another flower naming game and this time I'll name this pretty one as "hairy crown flower", agree? lol...

By the way the the next picture is on her bud stage, a bead like flower that turn into a messy hair flower. cute isn't it?

Since, I'm already doing some sort of game here, how about I'll some more twist by converting the first photo into sepia and black and white. Which to you think had stood out?

The Corrugated Bougainvillea

I remember my mom called this type of bougainvillea as a corrugated bougainvillea because of the uneven distribution of colors on the bracts, i.e having more colors than the usual single colored bracts just like the photo above with pink-white combination.

I searched the web for the plant's real name but have not found any. So I guess for now, the name my mom told me before will prevail until I'll found out what really it is.

The pink and white bougainvillea is very pretty how about having a little tweaks by converting it to black and white and sepia. Let's see the results...

Hmmm... quite interesting but I still love the colored one. How about you?

White Lilium

This white lilium was one of the flowers that I was able to photographed this morning at Mercy Community Hospital here in Iligan City while waiting for my whole abdomen ultrasound result.

I insisted on bringing my DSLR with us (hubby was with me) because I know I'll be able to take some snaps knowing the hospital has a lot of flowering plants around their surrounding.

And I was so happy I was able to get some, because I already run out of photos to be posted here.. lol..

So here she is Ms. Pretty White Lilium in different photo mode...

Happiness

Happiness. I always have it every time I look at beautiful flowers and more joy when I got a chance to photograph her.

My first entry for...

The flower featured today is a white denrobium, from the genus of orchids that I have photographed at my officemate's front yard last Saturday. I purposely brought my camera with me because I know that they have a lot of different blooms at their home. And these white orchid is one of them.

Let's look at the photo at different setting...
