Description
As I go about my day, I am always on the lookout for luscious, scrumptious colored, flowering plants and shrubs. I came across a very popular landscape plant here in our Arizona Sonoran Desert. The bougainvillea, a very colorful plant, pure eye-candy! Native to South America, but such a fitting plant with our Spanish and Southwest architecture.
They always get some oohs and aahs from me, and I always have fun photographing them. I love the flower within a flower look. These bracts are an impressively, showy, display of magenta color, more colorful than the true flower. But I like to capture the unnoticed, deciding to get in real close, honing in on the actual flowers of the bougainvillea. Tiny as they are, it's "My Macro Moment!"

Loredana! You have such a lovely way with words. I always enJoy what you have to say. Thank you so much. Getting in close, shows the actual flowers, whereas the red are leaves, called bracts, which are more showy than the tiny flowers themselves. They work together to give us such a happy moment. Janet💕
