Mallow, photo by Harold Davis. View this photograph larger.

This is a photograph at fairly high magnification (about 8:1) of an annual Mallow flower, Lavatera trimestris. I photographed it today at Blake Garden, which is near my home, because I like the spiral inside the flower. I think it is well worth looking at larger.

You may have noticed a new design for my photo blog. I hope you like it. Here’s the full story behind the change.
