Tropical Surprise
Found this protea blossom at the grocery store, and just couldn't resist buying myself a little eye-candy. Doesn't this look like birthday candles, angora yarn, and fancy ribbon all rolled up together??? I fell in love with these in Hawaii, and just can't get over how structural and architectural they are--such an abstract flower!

Your details are gorgeous, as usual Pat. I cannot get over the color. Is it me or does this thing look like an alien or something. Its so unreal. They don't have anything like this in my grocery story.
Wow Pat - you find the most beautiful flowers!! Never seen one like that! Beautiful macros... again!! :)
I have never seen one of these. What great shots...your captures are fantastic as always.
WOW, that is really cool! Nice shots.
I have never seen anything like that!! Gorgeous!! Love the black background behind it too...really makes those colors pop!!!
What a fabulous find! I love the beautiful way you caputred it, too. That is such an interesting plant. Wow!
what a cool plant! I've never seen those before--so detailed and interesting.
Love the colors. I always love seeing your macros.
So intricate. I'm amazed that you know so many flower/plant names. Did you study them somewhere?
Wow. I want to reach out and touch it. The detail in the fuzz is incredible. Nice shot.
Beautiful, I just love these pretty flowers and the details you captured! My favorite is the third where you can see the 'angora yarn' so well!
I had these flowers down in Palm Springs and thanks to you (earlier this year) knew what they were called. :)

That is SUCH an amazing flower! WOW! It really does look like bday candles popping out of an intricate weaving of yarn and ribbon. That is WAY cool!
