Description
A pretty tropical sunset with the sunshine glowing through the petals of a red Bougainvillea plant from a balcony in the Philippines overlooking the countryside and hills. A colorful glowing sky of yellow and orange and some partially silhouetted clouds add to the moody atmosphere. The sun shows a starburst effect glowing through the tree above. For me, this is a tropical paradise.
I was not there. My daughter, Nikki Menner captured this amazing image, and I (Kaye Menner) did the post processing.

Bougainvillea (the genus), was named in honor of the explorer and scientist, Louis Antoine de Bougainville (1729 - 1811), who made the first French voyage around the world, and for whom the Papua New Guinean island is also named. Known for their brilliant floral displays and ground-covering power, bougainvilleas originate from the tropics and subtropics of South America.

Thanks so much Pamela :) My daughter loves photography too and all forms of crafts, but she is not on the site and is happy if I post a few of her images. I loved browsing some of your new artworks and I left a few L/F's as a big thank you.
