I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown

Thanks, guys. I had to rotate the image 90° but otherwise left it intact. Some shade at the base of the inflorescence helped. These flowers are amazing close up and in person. The hummingbirds are big fans of the flowers, too. Thumbs up
