This afternoon I was in a local park and noticed some beautiful bushes. At the moment, the shrubs were in full bloom. I also noticed the flowers and liked their shape. The flowers had long inflorescences with fluffy petals of bright pink color.
I did some interesting blooming angles and thanks to the open aperture I got a nice bokeh in the background. It's the height of a sunny day at noon, so you can notice all the brightness of sunlight on the petals and green leaves of this shrub.
In some places, the inflorescences changed their color from dark pink to pale pink. I don't know what it depends on, perhaps the middle of the inflorescences has burnt out in the sun or has already finished flowering. It all looked very beautiful and certainly caught my attention.
Many branches of the bush were devastated and had no foliage at all. I think these branches remained from last year and now they only decorate the shrub with a withering look. The green leaves themselves were not quite green but mixed between green and yellow, and this was especially clearly visible under the bright sun.
How do you spend your summertime? I hope you also enjoy the flowering of the plants.
