I like to take flower images after the rain. I don’t know why but seeing them gives nice comforting feelings to my soul. This is a Cambodia flower near my daughter’s school. There are a lot of beautiful plants in that area.

The Nature of Rose Apples

Rosidah Abidin — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 07:17:02 +0000

I just love to see the raindrops falling from this beautiful rose apple flower. It was slightly raining and I was looking around to find some interesting photo objects while escorting my daughter to one of her school activities. Since I’m only an amateur taking some pictures with my mobile phone, can you imagine what a professional photographer could do? Mother nature is such a beauty. It’s a shame that some people don’t care.

I found a quite comprehensive rose apple profile on the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service site, if you would like to know more about this plant.
