@Ron: Of course! It is a hibiscus. That is the second time I've posted the wrong name on a hibiscus. Maybe it is because I have a hydrangea (not a hibiscus) in a pot outside waiting to be planted. Thank you so much for the correction!
And, thanks for the comment!

Another winner. These are becoming your "signature" shots, and for good reason. The lighting, composition and clarity are every time superb.
