Interesting shots.

I’ve never seen anything like no. 1 before. You sure you haven't glued together some various plant/animal parts! :shrug:

I don't know a lot about flowers, but I do know No1 is a Passion flower and it's very nicely taken, perhaps a little to tightly cropped ?.
Havent a clue about the second but it a beautiful flower and very well taken.
Love the DOF on both shots.

First one is passion flower "Jara" has a really nice cinnamon scent too.
I think the second is a type of lantana, Where did you take the pictures?, just out of interest.

Glad to help (one thing is sure and that is , I am a better plantsman ( I will not say plantsperson :gag:) than photographer)

next question, where are the photos of the flutterbys? :lol:

They are very nice, and to me they look like different plants glued together, nice.
