Why mornings are beautiful

Gumamela (Hibiscus)

An orange Gumamela blooms beautifully to greet passers by at the park in front of Hard Rock cafe in Ayala, Makati. And as a reminder of why mornings are indeed beautiful, I waited a couple of hours at the park after having some coffee and breakfast at Starbucks just a few meters away and was greeted by this bloom. I've always enjoyed mornings regardless of how awfully hectic they sometimes may be and this has reminded me of why I do so.

Awww. Gumamela :) I remember I used to grind the petals to make bubble liquid. Get a wire, make it into a circle, dip it into the liquid and blow bubbles with it ^^ aww.. memories.

A Chinese Rose for us this is and I really do love these flowers, even we can’t have them in nature (to cold) we do have them as homeplants :)) And what I really do like, is that those are going to sleep as well and wake up in the morning, just like this one!

i really miss Philippines. There’s no other place like Philippines. I hope and pray that our country will progress and no more corruptions.

Beautiful flower. I like your POV. However, the building sign in the background is very distracting. It takes away my focus of the subject.
