Description
A beautiful soft yellow flower found along the busy highway in Destin, Florida. I think it is an orchid, but I am having trouble identifying the exact type . . . . even without a name it is beautiful! A rose by any other name would smell as sweet!
A hero has come to my rescue!! With a great deal of help from Gary F Richards, this has been identified as a beautiful Canna Lily, of course! He has suggested that this is a Toucan Yellow Canna Lily and I think he certainly is probably right! I also am leaning a bit towards the Yellow King Humbert Canna Lily from my memory of the flower. I sure appreciate Gary taking time to help me with this and I hope you take a moment to visit his wonderful gallery here on FAA as well!
Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!

Stunning flower macro! I might be able to help identify it. How big is it, tall, and blossom size? What does the leaf look like and how big? Is it on a vine or stand-alone?

Stunning floral macro! I think it is an orchid too. L/F/tw

Thanks so much, William. The evening sun gave me perfect lighting I think! I was really happy with how dark the background came out! It was literally on the side of the road, but it kind of looks like I took it in a studio ☺
