To the bloom, We're mere spectators!













I've got to admit, no number of photographs of, as cliched as it sounds, but "Greenery", and it's blooms, is too much!
The fifth photo is of a flower that particularly caught my attention because of how merry it seemed at being upside down!
In the last one, I caught an ant climb up the Staminal Tube of this brilliant Hibiscus and I thought to myself "Wow!" because these ants can smell the tiniest amount of anything which is in their opinion edible or sweet, and that's the entire mechanism for pollination. It isn't a surprise to anyone who knows a tiny bit of Biology, but who's to kill the joy of watching it all unfold off the pages of your textbook?

    Why doesn't my camera ever capture flowers so beautifully? I suppose it's my shaky hands -__-
