Because I'm no botanist -- though I did attend and ace a class in college lo many years ago -- I had to do 30 seconds of research on your question! The "white thingies" the anthers. They produce the polle and are supported by the stamen. In the photo, you'll notice the stamen faintly in the background swooping toward the front of the photo, and thus supporting the anthers. How's that for a scientific answer?!?!?

Wow! That is an impressive photo! It was so magnified that I actually thought you had composed a photo using red satin cloth. I'm always amazed at your skill with you camera, Eric, but I never even suspected that this was a macro-shot. I thought you were wandering into the realm of abstract (and composed) photography! Very well done!

LOL!!...I gotta tell you...I've been shooting since I was 16 (many, MANY years back) and to this day I'm still a bit surprised when I look at what I shoot. Sometimes the surprise is a good one (like this photo) and sometimes it's not, such as when I'm pretty sure I've gotten something good and it just sucks! Thank you, sir, for your kind words. I always look forward to your comments!

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

Is there some tread left on those tires, or is it just like throwing a hot dog down the hallway? Family Guy

The ones in sharp focus seem to be floating on the background. Very interesting photo, Eric and a definite detour from you usual work.
