The San Diego Zoo and Safari Park, while known for their zoological treasures, are both horticultural showcases as well. Here, Pride of Madeira flowers are illuminated by the late afternoon sun filtering through trees. (Thanks for the flower i.d., Dave!)

Lily
Another flower, lit by the afternoon sun filtering through trees, at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
Rather than being distracting, I like the curving twigs in front and behind the flowers.
