Treasure flower

Sometimes you have the impression that a whole day is cloudy and gray. I had that feeling today. Had a dull day. Full administrative work. And when I had time to look outside, it was grey. But if it had been reality, this flower wouldn't have openend it's petals.

The official name of the flower is Ganzania, native of South Africa and is also called Treasure flower. And when you search the internet for it, one learns quickly that the plant is treasured for its strangely patterned daisylike flowers.

At the end of the day I looked with the camera into the heart of the Treasure flower until the entire live screen was filled with this cheerful splash of warm colors ... it still made my day ... ;)
