I love the Hoya for it's old fashioned beauty. This looks like it's wearing a faux fur collar. Nice shot, Peter.

What pretty little flowers! Oh well, the 1600 doesn't look like it hurt you any! Looks like you have a wonderful botanical collection . . . me, I can't even grow pansies! haha Cindy

Nice shot

Thanks, Joshua & Karen. This is actually shot from above. Hoya is a viny plant and the hemispherical flower clusters tend to hang down. For yesterday's shot I'd twisted the branch around so the flowers were sticking up. Here's Donna's shot of the same plant last year . All my indoor flowers are either at home or in my office.

I do like shots from the underneath; give it a completely different viewpoint. Do all these grow in your home, Peter? I am very impressed with the variety you present, and your knowledge of the species.

Ouch 1600 iso! Yeah I forget to do that too. It's hard to see the difference with the little 2 inch preview image. Good shot though! What a interesting angle you picked. Were you over the top, or under? What ever you did I like it.
