Starfish/Carrion flower
Do not become paralyzed and enchained by the set patterns which have been woven of old. No, build from your own youthful feeling, your own groping thought and your own flowering perception. Lotte Lehmann

This is SPECTACULAR. Absolutely amazing photo!
amazing photo. are these flowers carniverous? or just stinky?
WHOA. That’s very cool.
The photo is stunning. The quote is exactly what I needed to read today. Thank you.
Strangest thing I have ever seen. Your photo should win some awards. It is fabulous photography. I love it. I am putting it on my desktop for a while.

I went to the jump photo as well. I’ve never seen anything like it.
It’s great. Is the flower in your yard/flower pot?
The photo is mesmerizing.

yes, it’s in a small pot…i imagine the smell would really be horrific if it was in the ground and grew to shrub size! yikes. it was a plant left behind from where i moved…i liked it, but had no idea what it was. my Mom clued me in after seeing the bud (posted before this). pretty freaky.
