The Daring Debauchery of the Decadent Stinkhorn Fungus

I was so enthralled by the discovery of these Stinkhorn Fungus at the Auckland Domain yesterday shooting the sad flowers of winter, I returned today with my tripod and macro lens – though they are not really macro subjects averaging 10-12 cm high (4-5″) and when fully extended 25-30cm across (12″). But the macro lens

Nymphs in the moonlight ever after

The dance goes on forever and ever in the moonlight in the garden in the hearts of the dancers even after the moonlight and the garden and the hearts of the dancers have faded away forever and ever  

Lily pad love

Made a jaunt up to the Auckland Domain today and visited the Wintergarden. This is in the atrium area of the hothouse. Picture perfect.
