    Sanslöst vacker komposition. Blomman är ju alla tiders mot bergväggen(?). Vad är den gjord av?

    Nice photo!! Amazing it is growing in that location! I think that is the same plant we call "Red Hot Poker" over here.

    Interesting photo. It is amazing the way flowers find ways to survive. I love the contrast between the rocks and the flower - and the puzzling aspect.
