I just thought I'd let you see what the _fully_clothed_ flowers look like ;) Apparantly they are CHINESE LANTERN - PHYSALIS ALKEKENGI. I hope you like this close study, natural evening sunset light (hence the long shadows), playing through some venitian blinds onto a white bowl full of the flowers. A different still life using the skeletal flowers is offered in AFTER THE BEAUTY IS GONE

Great choices made all around on this one. Awesome capture! Love the colors, the intricate patterns, composition, and the lighting. Isn't nature grand?

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry D. Thoreau
