    Love the trail of stamen (?) on the petal, adds another dimension to a fine image.

      Very nice images Greg, I particularly like the detail in #2 of this set. I've never seen one of these before, only heard of them. Are they heavily perfumed?

        Not too sure about the perfume. The blooms were a way up the tree and I was standing on top of a ride on mower to get the shots. Quite a large flower but I didn't really notice much fragrance.

        Just to give an illustration of size:
