E Komo Mai - Kula, Maui

The phrase "E Komo Mai" means 'Welcome, come in." I came upon this pretty protea during a visit to an upcountry garden near Kula. When I saw this flower, it seemed to beckon me, invite into its garden. Although proteas can sometimes be difficult to photograph, I never tire of the great variety of colours, shapes and sizes. The photo was taken in February 2016, with my trusty Olympus camera. Enjoy.
