Tried different ways of composition, only to discover that the red flower alone made for a very uninteresting photograph.
I chose to include its younger siblings instead. I like it and hope you will.
Pentax k-50 body with Takumar F 70~210mm 1:4~5.6 Lens.
1/250, F/5.6, ISO @ 3200, Focal Length @ 210mm,
no flash and used Spot Metering.
Thanks for viewing.
