Joggie you have captured this wonderfully, beautiful composition, lighting and subject. This really shows the plant in it's natural habitat, it is the first time I have have this in 45 years of involvement in photography. It is great to see something new!

Well that is surely a very unusual plant, that is surely something I never have seen before and that is surely an original image that I like it a lot...perfect!
See you Joggie!

Very interesting detail of a strange plant! The one sharp rock in the foreground provides good lead in!

Thanks Avi - yes it was taken in Sep 05 but only processed now. I have too many photos (sounds familiar?). The white stones in front was included on purpose. If you imagine the ground covered by a layer of thumb-sized and smaller quartz pebbles for as far the eye can see - that is the Knersvlakte. The plants surviving in these conditions break through the quartz layer after a good rainfall session, grow, flower and shed their seeds within a matter of weeks and then disappear, sometimes for several years until the rain comes again. Kind regards
Joggie

Looks like an old photo from the time you have signed, but a striking one Joggie.... only the large piece of white stone right at the bottom is distracting a bit..
cheers !!
