Star Alliance - _TNY_3924

This is a not yet fully opened flower of the Madagascar periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus), also known as the old-maid.

 

In spite of the name, this was shot in the garden at our resort in Phu Quoc, Vietnam.

 

The shape of this one reminds me of the logotype of Star Alliance, the world's largest airline alliance made up of (currently) 26 airlines around the world.
