Quite an over used technique but I thought that it worked quite well in this image of cosmos by the roadside in Dullstroom.

Cosmos bipinnatus, commonly called the garden cosmos or Mexican aster, is a medium-sized flowering herbaceous plant native to Mexico. The species and its varieties and cultivars are popular as an ornamental plant in temperate climate gardens. It can also be found in natural areas in much of North America, where it is a garden escape (introduced species) and in some habitats becoming a weed.
Cosmos bipinnatus is considered a half-hardy annual, although plants may reappear via self-sowing for several years. The plant height varies from 2–4 ft (0.61–1.22 m). The cultivated varieties appear in shades of pink and purple as well as white. Its foliage is finely cut into threadlike segments. When flowering, the plant can become top heavy. This problem is alleviated when grown in groups, as the bipinnate leaves interlock, and the colony supports itself.

Ulam raja, literally meaning "the King’s salad", was brought by the Spaniards from Latin America, via the Philippines, to the rest of Southeast Asia.[1] Ulam, a Malay word used to describe a preparation that combines food, medicine and beauty is the widely popular Malay herbal salad. As a Malaysian delight, it is served throughout the country from major hotels for tourists to buffet lunches or dinners for the locals.
The young shoots of "Ulam Raja" is my favorite salad with my lunch and diner, it grow widely at my backyard.

We had a partial eclipse and I just used the subdued lighting to take some flower shots in my vegetable garden.
Cosmos is a genus of about 20-26 species of annual and perennial plants in the family Asteraceae, native to scrub and meadow areas in Mexico (where the bulk of the species occur), the southern United States (Arizona, Florida), Central America and northern South America south to Paraguay.
They are herbaceous perennial plants growing 0.3-2 m tall. The leaves are simple, pinnate, or bipinnate, and arranged in opposite pairs. The flowers are produced in a capitulum with a ring of broad ray florets and a center of disc florets; flower color is very variable between the different species. The genus includes several ornamental plants popular in gardens.

HISTORY
The history of the PICTURE comes from the Cosmos 2 Model Ship web site ( Home Page ) ( above link ) .
Main History
The model was commissioned to give the owners of the original Full size Cosmos ( by Lloyd's Ships ) a full understanding of what to expect with the newly proposed Cosmos 2 . Unfortunately the project never got underway for two reasons . The first reason was the shipyard owned by the Qintex group ( under the control of the late Christopher Skase ) , went through a turbulent time and several changes of ownership . The second reason was of course , the price tag ( $50,000 000 ) . At nearly 200 feet it would have been Australia's largest and most expensive private boat ever built . The original Cosmos ( at just under 100 feet ) is still considered one of Australia's most luxurious and recognizable private vessels . Having featured in movies and life style shows , it was the first boat of it's size to have a fully operational private Heliport . Cosmos set the standards for all mega yachts to come .
Features
Cosmos 2 ( the model ) is highly detailed . You will note from the photo's the model has three main Decks . With a fourth deck area recessed for the Helicopter Pad . The Helipad has an electric motor driven by D size batteries . This motor and battery system are hidden underneath the pad (out of view) . A drive shaft from the Hughes 500 D Helicopter fits into a key way shaft receiver in the deck . This mechanical drive then turns both the Main rotor and Tail rotor blades together .
It is also interesting to note that since Cosmos 2 completion , the world of Micro R.C helicopters has come of age . With great luck , the general size of some micro heli's sold today are actually within the correct scale of the ship . One example would be the micro heli ' Robins ' by Esky . This micro is so stable , that it should be possible to do real take off and landings from the flight deck of this mega yacht .
Remote Control
At one stage it was fully setup for remote control operation. However the model is not currently equipped with R.C gear or a motor . Originally it was powered by a 3 hp chain saw petrol motor. The motor had a clutch and belt drive system that ran two pulleys at the end of the shafts .The pulley wheels are still in position and ready to receive a standard automotive V belt . The original 3 hp motor gave it a brilliant top speed of approximately 10 to 15 km/h . The brass propellers and shafts are still moving freely and have never given any problems . Both rudders move freely and have servo rods and horns ready in place to be driven by standard servos .

***PLEASE!!! NO MULTI-GROUP OR STRING GROUP INVITATIONS. ONLY ONE (1) GROUP INVITATON PER COMMENTOR. THANK YOU!!***
A lovely Cosmos flower, shot last year along a street in our neighborhood.
It had been explored just for a short period. But t was quickly dropped, so there is no record at Scout. Anyway I am glad, because my photos had not been explored since the last October and I was thinking that my photos might be excluded from the explore candidates by some unknown reasons. Thank you so much for your kind responses.
