Refering to Bob's comment above: This F² image was captured in the garden of my wife. When my wife buys a new plant, she always saves the attached card in a box. When I take a capture of one of her plants, it's rather easy for me to read its name on the card, because I'm not a specialist in knowing the (foreign) nicknames of plants. Therefore it's possible that Owd Bob is right too. My title however sounds more impressive, LOL!!!

Edit: I have found THIS on Wikipedia, so the English (nick)names for it are 'Obedient Plant' or 'False Dragonhead'. The Dutch nickname is 'scharnierplant'.

Must admit the true name does sound quite impressive Sea. It is good to educate some of us old rednecks. :)
You don't do many in the vertical and this one looks perfect for that. Clarity is top notch.
Good health to you and yours.

Mr Sea - By whatever common name it goes (though the flower does look like foxglove), it is a beautiful capture! Thad

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .
