Flowers around the world - Java, Indonesia

Before I begin my posts on my trips around Indonesia, I thought I'd continue my "Flowers around the World" theme. I like to photograph the plants and flowers when I travel, so here is a beautiful flower I saw in the countryside of Java. I was notified by a nice reader that this flower is a "Plumeria".

Flowers around the world- Nevada

Here is a shot which I took at home. I thought I'd post it before the season was out. My Amaryllis decided to do it's thing a couple of weeks ago, so I was lucky enough to capture these shots. I'll post these in their stages.

Flowers around the world - Hong Kong

One of the things I always seem to photograph when I travel, is flowers. I guess the combination of colors and nature get my attention, so I capture them whenever I can. So, I thought I would just post a photo or two here and there of different flowers from around the world for those who might be interested.

I took this particular photo in Hong Kong in 2009 and I was informed by a friendly lady on Flickr that it is called a "Casesalpinia Pulcherrima".
