Hi Dave,
Nice plant - it is very impressive.
Would be nice if you could catch it with a more uniform background so it stands out more - however, this way we can see the habitat.

Hello David,
love those plants you introducing us too, this one I have never seen before. You always have a nice way to compose you floral photos, which is hard with those tall growing ones. The quality of this shot is great, sharpness, details and lighting are excellent.
