[edit] Neoregelia

This Neoregelia traps rainwater in its core to provide nutrients to itself.

This stuning photograph shows a bright purple and green Neoregelia at its core with inflorescences (the purple flowers) being sustained by trapped rainwater. The colours and proximity of the photo make it especially beautiful.

  • Oppose. Somewhat blurry at full resolution. Also, it is probably more encyclopedic to show the whole flower plant. --Pharaoh Hound 15:52, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Neoregelias are plants, not flowers; this picture shows the centre of the plant where water is captured.
  • Comment: Very well, it's not a flower, but I stand by my original statement about the framing. --Pharaoh Hound 17:05, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Interesting photo that illustrates a concept. Very colorful as well. - Dessie

  • Oppose. Illustrative, but somewhat blurry, details washed out by flash, and not the best composition I've seen. --NoahElhardt 16:48, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose The framing on Image:Neoregelia-sp.jpg is much better. Too bad its small. -Ravedave 17:27, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Interesting shot- I like the bright colors and the angle.These colors contrast each other nicely. Great shot! Christine

  • Comment I think it would be better if it had more perspective to get your bearings... but, it's good... not sure if it's FP material. gren グレン 18:21, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
