I took my dogs out at 330am and it was still quite dark out. But I could see these 2 flowers just glowing in the moonlight..
So I went over and took this picture using my cell phone with a flash.
It had just rained and the water droplets sparkled like diamonds!
This is actually a double flowering Tulip.. It looks like a rose it is so pretty!

@minx267 My sister works 4 night shifts and she has to adjust to sleeping in the day when she finishes them. Sometimes she decides she will not sleep after the last shift and comes round my place falling asleep all over the place!

I give credit to your flash light rather than moonlight.

@PurnaSharma I have an ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser.. it is basically as good as a Galaxy 7 but for only $200 instead of the $800 they were charging at the time

tha flash of your phone's camera did more justice to the tulip.
when i use the flash of my phone, the tendency is what appears is just the flash. hahah!

@minx267 maybe the background is black so the flash reflected the flower?
