Totally beautiful shots, Richard. Your sharpness and beautiful purple color is very appealing.

Thanks for those words Mike. Much valued.

The Trigger Plants occasionally grow in swathes along roadsides through the bush and are very striking.
The orchids are delightful, and wave their little white heads suspended on slender stems amongst the more open understorey of our forested areas

Outstanding, Kevin. Vivid color and black background really make this shot.

How big are these, Avondale? We have trigger plants in the Top End too but they're tiny. POTNers may be interested too in why they're called trigger plants.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.
