begonia

I never liked begonias. I always thought of them as being kind of generic annuals. Everyone has them. They're kind of boring. But we got some a couple of months ago to put in the front beds. And then I took some pictures. Now I've changed my mind. I hadn't noticed before the great texture the leaves have and I love how they curl. There's a lot of texture in the flowers, too, and I'll have to use my macro ring so I can get a good picture of that. I'll have to do it soon, though, because these are annuals and won't last much longer.
