I took this picture of a bee collecting pollen rather late in the fall. The flower was in a garden at the Roseburg's Veteran's Hospital. The flowers surely brighten the day for the veterans, and the grounds of the hospital are very well kept with gardens throughout the area. I love taking pictures of flowers, and when I'm lucky enough to find a bee collecting pollen it just adds to the picture. I'm not sure what type of flower this is, but is certainly bright and beautiful. We need more beauty in our lives, and God has blessed us with many things in nature to make our journey on this Earth more pleasant. Don't forget to stop and smell the flowers. Life is short! I've also added the camera settings below the picture to give you an idea of how I set my camera for close-up pictures. I hope this helps.
