Thanks Alexandra :) I cheated a little and held the branch still with my other hand as there was a bit of a breeze blowing at the time, but it was such a bright vibrant red I couldn't pass up the opportunity.

That's very strange and interesting. I've never seen anything like it.

Thanks Gypsy and Tiffany.
Tiffany, they're quite common here, being a native of Australia, but I can imagine they may not have been introduced far and wide overseas.

Lovely capture. You got it at such a fresh stage... before it has opened fully! I love it! It really is very shiny isn't it?! Actually I think being able to hold a flower steady in one hand and clcik with the other is very talented!!!! :) hehehe

hehe Helps that the camera is a relatively light PowerShot S2 IS, and as the model suggests, has image stabilisation.
Bet yes, I was struck by it red shininess (ooooh shiny thing!).
