This is superb Lorna. Great dof decision, comp and color. Love the detail in the center as well.

I think I own a "tie dye shirt" from 40-50 years ago that looks just like this flower. Lorna the colors are brilliant and over the top and what a great OOF BG to show it off.

Tie and Dye is the right analogy for the colors here, Lorna. Just a marvellous representation for Hibiscus. :cool:

Yes, definitely back to the 60s. :smile: The colors and swirl are neat and I really like your pov. Not sure if it's my tired old eyes or the compression, but the center of the flower seems a bit soft, which there was a larger version to double check that.
