Darkling Blooming

"My sorrow, when she's here with me, thinks these dark days of autumn rain are beautiful as days can be; she loves the bare, the withered tree; she walks the sodden pasture lane."

- Robert Frost

We have a bougainvillia by our gate. When we put it in last year it flowered a brilliant red colour. Now it's come out a beautiful pink. Oddly, the colour really didn't come out well on the camera - where it looked rather thin and washed-out.

So I messed with the colour curves something stupid ;-) I thought it looked kind of neat, in a rather different sort of a way.
