Almost looks like the back of some gigantic spider or something. John Jaedon 03-17-2007, 06:46 AM I have never seen this type of flower before. And you've captured it perfectly. I love the framing and the DOF. Good job. Chantel Stewels 03-17-2007, 06:57 AM The Protea is indigenous to South Africa. It's only found in the southern parts of the country. 'Proteas' is also the name of the South African national cricket team, The team who is of course, without any doubt in anybody's mind, going to win the Cricket World Cup, currently underway in the West Indies. *ahem*wink*wink*!
