Looked over to say hi to the next door neighbor and saw this wonder flower in bloom. It is one of the biggest I've seen. No crop on this image with a 5d mk III, Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 Art lens at 60mm, f/8.0, ISO 100 and 1/100 of a second. No external flash.

Hibiscus, but I'm not really positive - there are so many flowers nowadays that look simular. Very nice closeup! The detail on the pedal texture is awesome!
