This is a Bird of Paradise here in Australia. It may be called a Crane Flower in Africa whence it originated. It is on its last legs but still proud and beautiful.
A lovely shot of this beautiful flower! I once tried to get a shot of one of these in a hot house in West Yorkshire, but sadly the humidity caused too much of a problem with condensation on my lens, so that was a fail!
Thanks Angela. I had forgotten about the popular page link Time to update the rest of the profile. 😀😀😀
Thanks for the much appreciated comments. It’s a beautiful flower. I don’t think photos do it justice.
Thanks for commenting. These flowers are native to Africa. They are very common in Sydney.

Thanks for the much appreciated comments. I’ve tried quite a few times to capture this beautiful flower without much success! This is the best one I think.
