Brightly colored flower blossom.

Close up.

It almost looks like a star to me.

The center of the flower blossom.

Color radiating out from there.

The color is most intense in the center.

As the streaks of color emanate farther from the center they lose their intensity. The same way the light from a star does.

Photo details: Nikon D300. Nikon 60mm f/2.8. Focal length 60mm. ISO 400. 1/2000 sec. f/3.8.

Thank you for joining me on the blog today for this close up look at the center of a Phlox blossom.
