Flowers!

[bundycat]

Some of the poppy's started blooming a few days ago.

These are a bugger to shoot as they are quite tall and closest focus distance 45cm on my lens means I have to stand on my tip toes, which isn't ideal for stability.

Why don't you pick the flower ? ?

A sunflower of a different colour... much smaller too !

Samuijimmy, you should change your name to Vincent van Gogh.

In the middle of nowhere, coming out of the ground, no leaves but thought they are beautiful.

Something a little different! These photos were taken with my iPhone 5 and are images of lotus flowers that adorn stained glass windows of a Chinese temple outside of Chiang Rai.

It looks like it could be this...Amorphophalliua paeoniifolius, or Arum .... the flower is quite rare to see, but the plant is very common around parts of Thailand

I have one in a pot that bloomed the last two years, it was just showing it's head a few days ago... must check it again!

It smells like rotten meat and only lasts a few days!

Raffleasia Kerrii, Provincial flower of Surratthani, Seen here in Khoa Sok, Provincial park ... similar smell ....

Some one told me the other day it also grows in a location closer to Surratthanni city ...must check that out...

they usually bloom between January and April!

This is the smaller Malaysian cousin, I saw in Sabah State Borneo Malaysia.
