One last stand
Uploaded: December 28, 2007
This one remaining flower was missed when the shrub was pruned, it was underneath & out of view. I was attending a funeral when I saw it & thought it brightened up the day. Lens aperture F/3.2, shutter speed 1/194sec, focal length 19mm, taken approx midday.
