Shadowed Flower
Photo Location: Moody Gardens, Galveston, TX 
Posted By: Sailor, 06-07-2011, 09:13 AM

Here's a quick pic of an isolated flower I grabbed during a visit to Moody Gardens' Rainforest pyramid. As I noted on another thread, my botanical knowledges is limited - all I can tell you is this flower is a White Flower.

Thanks, EM. I was actually thinking about your treatment of such shots when I PP'd this one - but don't expect a royalty check .
