Description
These blossoms may look big, but they are only about the size of an American nickel. They pop up on the hedges near my work so I've taken a few pictures of them here and there. Most people just pass them by, so you know I had to take some photos! ;o) The whites usually get too blown out, but they came out all right in these shots.
The top one reminded me of a propeller, so I did a little postwork to enhance that effect. I'm not sure what kind of plant this is, so if anyone knows I'd be glad to post the information.

I don't think it is Plumbago, unless there is a white variety I'm not aware of.

Watching nature with other eyes makes you see the things people see but don't look at. Even the most usual things have unusual aspects we can discover simply by looking at it! Excellent work, Kort!
