I love Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus synuacus).In the USA, you can see this deciduous flowering shrubs blooming in private and public gardens in the summertime. There are different varieties. I took these two images of a pink double petal one which the center is less evident and then a white single petal with elongated stamen. These blossoms do not last long. They will not do well as a cut flower in a vase. If it is raining or cold in the morning they will wait until temperature warms up and sun comes out. It is the national flower of South Korea and a member of the Malvacea family not the Roseacea family of plants. Both images were taken with iPhone 6, Camera + app. Since it was bright noonday sun I did try to change the exposure using the exposure slider. Further adjustments which included healing brush & clone tool used on the white image using PSE 11. The white one has a vignette appled.
