Whoa! Is that a trick of light or are they actually a much brighter red? Very pretty color!
Thanks for your post Dorchid!
When the sun was shining brightly on the flowers this morning, at around 10 AM or so, the red colour was showing, just like this ----- so I went to grab the camera to take some pics to share. The camera's white balance setting was set to 'daylight' - and gave a account of the colours that were seen.
