Day #131 - Still more blooms...

(without flash)

(with flash)

Our rhododendron are all suffering from some kind of leaf damage this year, probably due to the irregular weather, but they're still presenting us with some beautiful flowers. Still waiting on two others to show their stuff, but this second one has burst into bloom in the last few days.

(If you enlarge the photos, the stamens look like they're painted with gold paint! Isn't that wild?)
