Flame Trees in Bloom, January 2010

Flame Trees | Los Baños, Laguna | January 17, 2010

This photo was taken at the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB), capturing the fiery blossoms of the flame tree (Delonix regia). These trees are a familiar sight around campus, especially during the summer months, when their bright red-orange flowers stand out beautifully against the sky. Walking under their branches always feels refreshing, as the mix of blooms and green leaves creates a vibrant canopy that reminds us of the season’s warmth and beauty.
