I really like the first one... beauties
just jumps out at me

the second one im feeling so/so about...
i cant tell what it is...
if you didnt say it was a plant, i might have no clue

Portugal · 27th of April 2006 (Thu)

Indeed those are very beautifull flowers, although filled with spikes.
The second is a shot from a palm tree, i also felt like that with it. It actually reminded me of some kind of pastery, all covered with glacé.
I might aswell throw in a few more pics i took on the same day
These ones are fully blown already:

I just love the background blur, i think it came out quite compelling, although the flower needed a bit more attention.

This was the "shot of the day" IMHO, just had to make it B&W to be so agressive...

very nice.
is the second one a Bougainvillea?

Yes it is, they are a plague in Madeira...they have pretty flowers, but are plague nevertheless.
Stay cool.

They are very expensive tropical patio plants here in new jersey.

I quite like the first one. The subject is very obvious and the background is great. It looks liquified.

In the second batch I am mystified by that last one. Very dramatic - love it! Is it the bottom part of the plant which grows the pink flowers (1st photo)?

Looks like you had a very good day out!

Good morning ya´ll.
Well pup if you want a truckload of it you just need to cross the Atlantic and stop when you start to feel the Sirocco hitting your face.

Thx for the kind comments Athena. And no, it isn´t from the same plant. Actually here you have the original version of it:

And i might aswell Show you another of my prey´s

Again thx for your kind comments!
