2011 Photo Entrants


Photo by James Mickely
This is a photo of a flower bud from Eucalyptus macrocarpa, an odd eucalyptus species with very large leaves and flowers. The bud is about the size of a large grapefruit, and the bright red peeking out is the stamens--the flower has no petals. I took this photo in Kings Park in Perth, Western Australia, where it is native but rather uncommon. - James Mickley
