North American Pitcher Plant
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 11 April 2008 in Plant & Nature.
A carnivorous plant I first saw growing in the wild in an East Texas Nature Conservancy preserve. The ones in the photo grow in the Longwood Gardens Consservatory.
I APPRECIATE THE MANY POSITIVE COMMENTS TO YESTERDAY'S PHOTO! :-)

I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

Once again good composition, elegance, aesthetic sensibility. Very good.
