the color is a little too intense on my iMac,
but that might be my settings.
Did you enhance it?

I’m finding the same, a deeper pink than I expected.

This is a common mallow. I think it was the deep purple that caught my eye. Marsh and musk mallows are pink and common mallow a deep purple, at least on Wilden Marsh they are.

The colour on my iPad quite strong, but doesn’t strike me as too strong. Maybe it’s my eyes.

There is wide variance in the colour of mallow flowers: delicate pinks to deep purples. I am drawn to strong colours.
