I posted another shot of this flower long ago with the following comment: It´s not really I wild flower I think, but I found it in the jungle. It´s a kind of mimosa with some interesting details. This flower is only open at night and fertilisation occurs by bats. The bats go inside to drink nectar touching the yellow dots with their body and wings and taken the pollen to other flowers. This time I made the picture in the twilight to have more control over the light.

....for sliders Sunday.
I've shot these before too but can't get enough of them. I think I'll try to make them myself though, rather than buying them. How hard can it be?
Stand Out from the Crowd
You saw me when there was everyone else.
I try so hard to stand out from the crowd.
I don't think I do a good enough job though.
That's why it makes me so happy when
you come to me just to talk.
I'll go to you just to be around you.
I have an irrational jealousy.
I try not to show it.
I'm not sure whether I fail or not.
I'm jealous of other people
that makes you smile and laugh.
I wish I could be that person.
The one that stood out from the crowd
for you.
There's a few, the ones I know.
The ones that stand out for me.
You're one, ya know.
I wonder if I could be one for you....
I wish I could.
