Beautiful shots, Rick! The first flower is an Hibiscus - don't know the other one.

Thanks, I'm used to seeing the fancier, more colorful Hibiscus.
The red flower turns out to be something called Cypress vine (Ipomoea quamoclit).

Nothing seems to relieve the pain of cabin fever like getting out among nature's creations. Nice variety of subjects and nicely captured.
