This close-up image depicts a vibrant Poinsettia plant (Euphorbia pulcherrima) blooming outdoors in Oaxaca City, Mexico. The plant features numerous clusters of large, intensely crimson-red bracts, with visible darker veins. At the center of several bract clusters, the small, yellowish-brown cyathia (true flowers) are discernible. Bright natural sunlight illuminates the plant from the upper left, creating distinct shadows on the overlapping bracts and enhancing the saturation of the red coloration. The background is out of focus, revealing a light-colored, possibly stucco or concrete surface in the upper left and a darker, textured, indistinct surface (potentially brickwork) in the lower right, partially obscured by shadows. No individuals are present, and no actions or interactions are depicted.
