A wonderful capture of a unique subject, Doug, with great focus and attention to the intricate details of this wild ginger plant. I love to see images like this which are rarely photographed and not commonly seen. Congrats on your grand macro winner!

Thanks Pat. These grow at ground level to accommodate ground-dwelling insects, like beetles, that pollinate the flower. It is not however the same as the ginger used in Asian cooking.
