Both in the End

"He that does good for good's sake seeks neither paradise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the end."

- William Penn

I've been admiring these flowers on the bird of paradise plant by our gate for a while now, and looking forward to blipping these two in particular on the weekend - when I'd be able to catch the good light.

I like these two in particular because of the way they appear like birds (of paradise) peeking out of the undergrowth.

This is as it came from the camera. The colours really are this brilliant; no tweaking was necessary.
