I was attracted to the strong afternoon sunlight which backlit this strelitzia flower. The original turned out to be too busy so I blacked out the background and cloned out two of the lesser spikes, which, I think makes for a simpler image with more impact and which better presents the strong backlighting. Taken at the park at the Centurion mall – taken with my sorely missed late Canon EOS300 (film) – sadly passed on to that great camera-land in the sky…) Regards, Mike

THE LOCATION: / On Town Green in Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia on a lovely autumn day.

Bird of Paradise / Strelitzea regubae / Enchanting Gardens of Kula / Maui Hawai’i The Bird of Paradise thrives here in the Hawaiian Islands and has been introduced. It is a native of South Africa. Bird of Paradise (Stelitzia reginae), also known as Crane flowers, is one of the most beautiful of all exotic flowers. This native of South Africa derives its name from the unusual flowers, which resemble brightly coloured birds in flight. The leaves of a bird of paradise plant are bluish-green with a red midrib. This thick, evergreen foliage resembles small banana leaves, attached to a long stalk. In contrast to the banana, however, bird of paradise plants are trunkless. Emerging from the green and pink boat-shaped bracts in spring is the long-stemmed bird of paradise flower. The bird of paradise flower has petals of brilliant orange set off by its intense blue arrow-shaped tongue. The blooming will continue in a succession over some time. Here on Maui they bloom virtually year round. The Bird of Paradise is a beautiful plant as its height usually reaches anywhere from 4- to 5-feet tall with a 2- or 3-foot spread. The flowers unfold from a specialized leaf like structure which grows horizontally like a beak and contains pollen. The petals fold back and stick upward like the crown feathers on a birds head. The Bird of Paradise Plant grows best in damp, fertile soil with full to partial sun. Bird of Paradise are ornamental plants of the family Strelitziaceae. There are five species of the genus Strelitzia, all native to southern Africa. They grow from rhizomes (underground stems) to a height of 1 to 1.5 metres (about 3 to 5 feet) and have stiff, erect, leathery, concave, and oblong leaves. The leaves are bluish green and may have a red midrib. Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / My images do not belong to the public domain. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
