[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Cordyline fruticosa (Ti plant, also known as the good luck plant), is an evergreen flowering plant in the family Liliaceae, formerly treated in the families Agavaceae and Laxmanniaceae. It is a woody plant growing up to 4 m tall, with leaves 30-60 cm (rarely 75 cm) long and 5-10 cm wide at the top of a woody stem. It produces 40-60 cm long panicles of small scented yellowish to red flowers that mature into red berries. It is native to tropical southeastern Asia, Papua New Guinea, Melanesia, northeastern Australia, Indian Ocean[1] and parts of Polynesia. It is not native to Hawaii or New Zealand but exists on those islands as a feral weed introduced by Polynesian settlers.

Bonsoir Makkala
Cette plante est superbe, et la prise avec un arričre plan d'arbres, me plait beaucoup.
Merci pour cette découverte
Laurent

Hello,
What a great photo of the evergreen plant! Superb off-centered composition, excellent sharpness and above all, nice playing with lights and shadows + clever choice of DOF. By my opinion a stunning image, I'm surprised it has got so few points.
Congrats for the shot and of course, tfs. Greetings from Hungary, László
