Great job Carlos, I've shot these flowers several times and never did like the results. Yours is much better. Oh, and its name is "Spectabilis", its closely related to "Awapuhi" or shampoo ginger.

Aloha, Rick

Perfect lighting for this plant, and great title. The image has a science fiction but earthly feel to it at the same time. Nice. JoeSchmoe.

Thank you all for your comments, very appreciated. Mike, I actually asked the caretaker of the place and he told me that this is a close relative to ginger, but he could not give me the exact name. Regards! Carlos Ch.

Very interesting "high-rise" you captured there, Carlos. Really effective lighting...good contrast between subject and background in color and DOF. Nice photo. Carlos, do you know what this is? PS...I'll opt for taking up residence on the top floor...looks like those balconies have "flooding" problems :)... nice extra detail capture. MFC
