So Vivid It Looks Artificial

This morning I went out to check on my chickens before I went to work.  I brought them a gift of stale bread and fresh water.  On the way I walked past my azalea bush that is in full bloom.  In the early morning light the blossoms looked so vividly light purple they looked artificial. The bush was so pretty I had to run in the house and grab my camera but the picture doesn't really do it justice. How can anything so brilliant be natural?  I could use a nice scarf in this color please.
