I am a multi-genre photographer, nonpublic poet-philosopher and long-distance road trip enthusiast living in Australia. I am especially fond of photographing trees and the remarkable patterns, textures and pareidolia to be found in their bark.

Drakaea livida - the Warty Hammer Orchid

Seen at the end of September in the Perth Hills. This orchid is pollinated by the males of one species of Thynnid wasp who mistake the orchid’s unusual labellum for a flightless female wasp
