Beauty of plants 398

This group is intended to gather observations exhibiting particular beauty of plants. The plants itself or poised on the background of Nature. The plants caught illuminated in an unusual way. The plants extracted from a background. Please publish observations satisfying these intentions, allowing exactly this group to be the permanent exhibition of the best works. Also take care, please, of the highest possible technical level of your photos. Do not publish works 'gray stem on gray background' or 'white lily on white background'. The administrators reserve right to remove such observations - of course after discussion with the author. All comments on presented works are welcome, in hope to be honest but not arrogant... Do not use anonymity in so called 'blog way'! Has such a group a chance to exist? Time will show... Many thanks to all colleagues for the wonderful collection of observations!
