I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
Lovely! wonderful color, and nice and sharp. tigs=^...^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
This would make Georgia O'Keeffe get out her paint brushes, Jeff. Beautiful photograph! Wonderful focus, color, lighting, and angle.

A couple interesting facts about this plant:
--that red leaf is just that, a colored leaf. The actual flowers on the anthurium (and there are many) are those tiny white nubs on the stamen tower... at least a hundred of them.
--it grows very high in the canopy of jungle trees in Central America, and acquires its food and water by dropping a long main root all the way down to the jungle floor, sometimes as far as 100 feet!
A nice capture, by the way. I've seen a number of these and have found the yellow tip on the stamen to be rather uncommon.
