Post your flower pics

[El Tranquilo]

THAT is a beautiful plant. What is it?

Earlier in this thread I mentioned that the only two flowers I can identify are roses and tulips (actually probably a couple others, as well.) I can confidently assure you that the plant in the above photo is neither a rose or a tulip.

Actually I wish I knew the names of some of the plants I see around here. I better buy a field guide.

I thought it looks kinda like a banana tree. Could you post a shot of the leaf please?

I don't think it's a banana tree. Our best view of the leaves is going to be in the first photo. I don't think I'll be able to get back to it again.

I was taking photos on the other side of town and the guard to a gated community invited me in to take some pictures of plants behind his guardhouse. I think that the area where it was planted was far too small for a grown banana tree and it was intentionally planted as part of their garden.The plant in the photo was probably eight inches tall.

First thing I thought when I saw the photo, was banana, but at 8 inches tall. probably not.
Unless its some miniture variety.

Very mini banana? Just kidding!

Does this qualify as "flower"? Bunch of real flowers and plants formed as a "gundam" robot.

Trying for a Victorian look here. Maybe William Morris?

I was bored, so I started taking pictures and went through the camera's effects. It works for me.

Excellent macro

Thanks Scott.

I should have added that I used the 18-55mm AF-S DX VR f3.5-5.6 kit lens for this one, @ 55mm, f8, iso200, 1/60th sec.

It was done in the camera. I used color sketch, vividness +, outlines +.

More roses.
