![[Image: christflowerSM.jpg]](http://www.shuttertalk.com/forums/images/upload/christflowerSM.jpg) That's just the name of the flower. The bloom lasts for only a few hours. Nikon D3100 with Tokina 28-70mm f3.5, (I like to use a Vivitar .43x aux on the 28-70mm Tokina), Nikkor 10.5 mm fisheye, Quanteray 70-300mm f4.5, ProOptic 500 mm f6.3 mirror lens. http://donschaefferphoto.blogspot.com/

Passiflora Caerula. I used to have one in my front garden, (eventually around 12ft high), and the blooms lasted more than a day, but not very much longer.
But I have just been looking at this link and found it very interesting. http://www.microscopy-uk.org.uk/mag/inde...lower.html I was also looking at some high magnification stuff of the corona (the purple spikey bit). Lumix LX5. Canon 350 D.+ 18-55 Kit lens + Tamron 70-300 macro. + Canon 50mm f1.8 + Manfrotto tripod, in bag.

How strange! I've just finished processing some pics for the site, and one of them is indeed none other than a passionflower(as we know them in the UK).
Lovely example Don: composition lovely, depth of field spot on! Hey Don: you feeling OK?...what happened to the dark and moody!

I have secret reasons for feeling better (just kidding). A neighbor asked to phtograph this plant for her.
