I had no idea as to the intricacy of the pistils in the female begonia flower. I loved how the morning sun and dew fell on this flower.

Proper November again today, cold ,damp and grey.

A red begonia photographed in a garden along Carlton Crescent, Kogarah Bay (Sydney, Australia) with my Samsung Galaxy S20+, during April, 2020. I am reluctantly using the Samsung mobile phone camera whilst I agonise over which DSLR, or mirrorless DSLR, to purchase, to replace my Canon 60D which met its end and is no longer here!

This red Begonia likes it in the shade house, it has become quite big and is flowering profusely.

I'm a little obsessed with the Lensbaby Double Glass II at the moment. Shot wide open for maximum blur and softness. Also used macro filters. i can't resist frilly flowers either.

Don't get to close to me.

Begonias are a garden classic for good reason: This easy-to-grow plant takes root in a variety of conditions and requires little to thrive. Choose any of the many shapes, sizes, and colors, and you’ll be rewarded with stunning flowers and foliage. Some plants showcase single flowers with just one row of petals, while others have double blooms with numerous rows of petals.

I just love the colors here.

Seen at a begonia festival. Originally we were going to have a picnic at Hanging Rock but they closed it due to extreme heat.

Captured in greenhouse conditions.

Nice if viewed large.
