Honorable Mention
Simply Red
DESCRIPTION
The elusive and rare Sturt Desert Pea in outback South Australia only flowers when the conditions are just right as seen here. The dramatic sunset adds to the drama of red in this scene and the dead tree is used to devide the composition adding an opposing element to the shot in essence breaking the strong colours of the evening and adding some depth and height. These flowers are quite difficult to photograph with a strong composition as they are ground cover and quite small. They may not flower again like this for years at a time and it truley is a sight to behold.
