Not what I intended but I like the effect.  I had taken a pic of the buzzard in a tree then walked a bit closer.  I was about to take another shot when it flew away and I followed it with the camera as I pressed the shutter.

Roma, as they say: good art is unique, and making such a picture again,will be impossible.

So "arty" enough for me with this green background! Really like it!

Thank for the compliment Cliff :D

Robin, there are Hermannia with other colors, though I never saw them.
Thought that H. stricta is only this color??

Fascinating silver image, Cliff.

Luit,

The Hermannia is amazing.  Not a genus I have heard of before.  The flowers look a little oxalis-like, although facing downwards of course.  Excellent pic as so clear and so interesting.  What is the rest of the plant like?
Cheers.
