Best Shot of my Begonia......


I caught a good shot of this begonia on and early morning time. The lighting ended up perfect and the colors are so perfect.  I had a Aunt Eva that lived in a southern Iowa county that was in the woods on a hill. When we would visit her in the summer,  her door was covered and surrounded with begonias.  They grew tall and thick all around creating a tunnel. My grandmother grew flowers like that and Aunt Eva was the only one of all the ten children that grew flowers like her. An interesting note about her as the lived near old coal mining towns and valleys of fields were wintering grounds for Native American Indians. Her husband had hundreds of arrowheads that he found on the farm land and also in the timbers.

Your begonia photo is perfect. Sweet memories of your grandmother and Aunt Eva. Fun to hear about the arrowheads, too.
