January 16th, 2012: Japanese Morning Glory 'Hama No Sora' (Ipomoea nil) by nifty
That morning glory is so beautiful.
love the color!!!
Stunning!
Am I "better late than never" with some belated thanks??
That particular plant was grown indoors on a south-facing windowsill. You can see my stubby fingers which are holding the calyx so that the bloom is turned–facing away from the window. That seemed to give it an extra bit of backlighting, and made the white throat more luminous.
You did all the right things to create a great photo.
Breathtaking photo of this bloom...love morning glories.
Thank you, pirl & sunkissed! ^_^
