The pitcher has a striking mottled pattern of red and green, with a rim (called the peristome) that’s striped in red and yellow, which helps lure insects.
This plant is carnivorous — it traps insects in the liquid inside the pitcher, digests them, and absorbs nutrients.

Nothing to hide
Flower with long delicate petals that are white from the centre, turning light pink at the tips. The centre is also pink but darker. Beautiful open spread. Nothing to hide!

Can anyone identify this beauty?
Strange insect on a green leaf. Head and bottom are orange as are points that run down the body. Whispy hairs radiate out of the creature. No idea what it is?

open, unguarded, vulnerable, delicate, welcoming, giving, miracle of nature
Delicate pink flower, fully open. At the centre of the flower the colour is a darker pink, surrounding a yellow circle at it's heart, welcoming visitors. The background is a macro blur of light greenery.

There is exotic beauty and simple beauty. This is simply beautiful
A simple bright pink flower with eight petals and a bright yellow centre. It sits on a spindly stem. In the backround there is a mixture of unfocussed greenery.

Love this...
Macrrophotography is where the main object of the photo is rendered with hi- qualiy focus while the background is rendered as a blur of varying degrees of focus/blur. The background should not distract from the main ficus, but enhance it. This photo of a beautiful perfect pink flower is a good example..
