Flower

May flowers along California Avenue. The white one is a large flower of a very tall plant. Its petals flapped in the breeze like a parachute (I almost gave up trying to get a shot). It seemed almost otherworldly, as i walked toward the bus stop along W. California Ave. to San Fernando Rd. The red one is a small kind of rose. I was struck by its brightness, being the lone blossoming flower next to a handful of buds, on the way home from Trader Joe's along E. California Ave.
