Walked by this beautiful hibiscus flower and needed to catch it.

My mom was in the hospital, following a fall, and I saw this beautiful hibiscus flower. I love the twisty tree trunk.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on the beach in Ludington, Michigan at the Ludington State Park.

Time

It's one of many Lake Michigan sunset pictures that I've taken, probably somewhere between 8:30 and 9:30pm.

Lighting

The lighting is natural, nothing artificial.

Equipment

I used my cell phone. I believe it was a Samsung 4.

Inspiration

This is my happy place. Anywhere near water, but especially Lake Michigan in Ludington. The reason I shared this one is because it shows the gorgeous waves in motion and the sunset colors were amazing.

Editing

I might have cropped the picture, but that is all.

In my camera bag

I would love to have something other than my cell phone, but that will have to come with time.

Feedback

Just line up the most interesting parts of the scene for the best shot.
