Numbering over 300 species, vireyas can be found growing across much of S.E. Asia, principally in New Guinea, Borneo, Sulawesi, Sumatra and the Philippines. Although these are tropical regions, vireyas mostly grow in the cool mountainous areas, either as epiphytes high in the tall trees of the cloud forest, or in more open ground in shrubberies. Here the climate is more temperate and this makes the vireya ideal for wider cultivation across many parts of the world.

I am pretty sure that this is a Simbu Sunset tropical rhododendron, taken at what was then the Rhododendron gardens in Olinda - now known as the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden.
A glorious blazing red with pale yellow throats and rich brown pollen. Beautiful!

We ontmoeten de mensen van de Chimbu-stam. Ze organiseren een dans. We kunnen de voorbereidingen en de body painting meebeleven. Ze gebruiken alleen zwarte en witte verf. Op de lichamen van de dansers worden geraamten getekend. Heel luguber. We zien dan ook de skelettendans en het gevecht tegen de kwade geesten.
Avi - Papua New Guinea -
Bezoek bij een familie gekleed in de traditionele kledij van de Chimbu-stam. Hun hoofdversiering met prachtige veren zijn heel belangrijk. Het zijn de veren van papegaaien, paradijsvogels en andere siervogels... soms kan je de mooie paradijsvogeltjes met hun unieke veren op hun geheel nog zien als hoofdtooi. De veren worden generaties na elkaar goed bewaard, zo dat er niet telkens voor een feest ettelijke vogeltjes moeten sneuvelen... Ook de schelpen, het vroegere betaalmiddel (shell money), zijn een teken van welstand.

You can't go wrong getting up for sunrise, no matter where it is it's always different and the warm light lifts up colours, feelings and contours. This was the view from my hammock that morning with parts of Kundiawa town on the left. Lots of coffee plantations are in this area, the relative high altitude and surrounding flora give this coffee a distinct flavor for which this region is known. If your not a sugar fiend and purchase a cup on the streets you better tell them before to add less or no sugar, otherwise they will drown the coffee in 4 to 6 spoons of it. PNG

A wide variety of flowers, trees, fruits and wild life on the way up to Mt Wilhelm. This is 2km after Mt Wilhelm village on the way to the twin lakes Piunde and Aunde. I sadly forgot the name of this fellow but if someone knows this plant please let me/us know in the comments. Stayed in the A Frame hut after meeting one of the owners on the way up, which was good because otherwise we would have spent a cold night outside. Simbu region, Papua New Guinea
Chimbu woman with a baby (Papua New Guinea)
The Chimbu tribes are located in the Chimbu (or Simbu) Province in the central Highlands of Papua New Guinea.
The term “Chimbu” was given to the people by the first Australian explorers in 1934, who heard the word “simbu” (which is an expression of a pleasant surprise in the local language) exclaimed by the locals when they first met.
They are well known for their huge headdresses made from feathers of birds of paradise, with some of them up to one meter long. The tribal people from Chimbu Province decorate their bodies with kina shells, and they may paint themselves with mud and clay mixed with oil from plants and pig’s fat to make the body shine and to keep it warm during the cold time of the day.
Traditionally, the Chimbu tribes don’t live in villages but in dispersed settlements. Typical houses in Chimbu Province are oval or rectangular, with dirt floors, low thatched roofs, and walls woven from flattened reeds. Men live in large communal men’s houses (hausman) set on ridges for defensive purpose while women, children, and pigs live in separate houses. Today, with the influence of the modern world, the majority of men and women live together as a couple.

Group of Chimbu tribesmen gathered around the fire (Papua New Guinea)
The Chimbu, also known as the Simbu or Kuman people, are an indigenous group living in the Eastern Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea.
They traditionally use mud as a form of body decoration and paint.
This practice is often associated with ceremonial events, rituals, and dances.
Mud is mixed with natural pigments to create various colors, and it is applied to the body.
The use of mud and body painting serves both aesthetic and symbolic purposes.

The Chimbu, also known as the Simbu people, are an indigenous group living in the Eastern Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea.
They traditionally use charcoal as a form of body decoration and paint. This practice is often associated with ceremonial events, rituals, and dances.
Charcoal is made by burning wood until it turns into a fine, black powder. This powder is then mixed with water or other natural substances to create a paste that can be applied to the skin.

I'm stampolina and I love to take photos of stamps. Thanks for visiting this pages on flickr.
I'm neither a typical collector of stamps, nor a stamp dealer. I'm only a stamp photograph. I'm fascinated of the fine close-up structures which are hidden in this small stamp-pictures. Please don't ask of the worth of these stamps - the most ones have a worth of a few cents or still less.
By the way, I wanna say thank you to all flickr users who have sent me stamps! Great! Thank you! Someone sent me 3 or 5 stamps, another one sent me more than 20 stamps in a letter. It's everytime a great surprise for me and I'm everytime happy to get letters with stamps inside from you!
thx, stampolina
For the case you wanna send also stamps - it is possible. (...I'm pretty sure you'll see these stamps on this photostream on flickr :) thx!
