Red Punch
A bit of rouge never hurt anybody. I'm always impressed by how a colour can instantly change a mood or communicate. To me this one says, "At-ten-tion!".

What a great story and lovely interpretation. I love gerberas and your photo immediately caught my eye. They are South African daisies – all hybrids of the original Barberton Daisy from the eastern grasslands of South Africa.

Caroline – Thank you for the South African daisies backgrounder! Gerberas are so photogenic. The variety of colours and singles and doubles make them such vibrant and interesting subjects. I have a real fondness for them. What pretty things to be native to your home country! I’m not sure if there’s anything as lovely that are native to Canada…. hmmm… I can only think of a maple leaf! haha
