Meaner! Nastier! More Carnivorous!

Went out last weekend for a second go at the tiny carnivorous plants I found at Crosslands Reserve in Hornsby Heights (I've since learned they're drosera peltata)

Anyway, for this attempt I decided to not concentrate so much on their innocent, ornamental beauty.... but rather more anthropomorphic characteristics....

Uh... howling at the moon?

nice shots, wonderful set. and a very interesting display of anthropomorphic characteristics (I think :oops: since vocab ran out...)

Last one looks like a microscopic photograph of a virus in a cell/membrane :)

Nice work. I like #1 & #3. They would do well in the Hornsby photo comp.
