Yeah, yeah... I keep on threatening that I want to try out a couple of creative ways to take a self portrait, but I prefer being behind the camera which means that I am avoiding a self portrait photo shoot as long as possible.

The flowers of all species are hairy to varying degrees and generate the odor of rotten flesh. Because this one is so small, you don't smell it from afar, but when you get your nose close to it, the smell is quite clear. The colour of the flowers also mimics rotting meat. This attracts scavenging flies who then pollinates the flowers.
And in sepia... not just because I can, but because I think it looks good. It gives it a certain something which the colour doesn't.
