@Shutterbug: I was in a cafe overlooking a square in the middle of my city Canberra, Shutterbug. The red flowers were glowing in the window with sharp spiky centres and contrasted well with the fountain and calm street below - I did what we all do - whipped out my camera lol:)) Thanks for dropping by to see it!

@wolf: Indeed it is wolf - well spotted!! The cafe makes a good coffee too. Cheerful on a wintery day (hope yours is going well!!)

Nice capture! Reminds me of the city my school is in near DC. I enjoy how the flowers "play" with the fountain in this one, as well as the contrasts between the figure/ground.
