Clerodendrum quadriloculare, otherwise known as the Q-tip plant, is a species of flowering plant native to New Guinea and the Philippines. When I initially spotted this flowering plant in Hawaii, I assumed that it was man-made. What a delight to discover that it was real!
On an errand today I had the feeling it might be worth taking the camera. Just as I was about to head back I saw this little beauty resting up on some brambles.
Despite the blown out areas I do like taking shots of these backlit as the orange just glows.

Coronavirus Lockdown Garden Macro of an everyday plant...first attempt with 36mm tube and Sigma 85m F1.4 Art. (I expect there will be a lot of people doing this at the moment)
Image taken at the Stonebow Washlands in Charnwood. Orange - tips in our area have been plentiful so far this year and it was a bonus to catch the Male and Female together.

I think, if nothing changes or things get worse, many will pay a high price.

I don't often get the chance to photograph these butterflies. They are constantly on the move and hardly ever land.
I was very lucky with this one.....except I didn't have my macro lens with me !
After years of trying and being frustrated that they were always to fast, I finally managed to get a decent shot of an Orange tip. Stoked! Arnhem, Netherlands
One of the great satisfactions that digital photography brings to us these days!

Glen Brook, Adirondacks, NY. The forest was beginning to take on the lighter greens and creeping into yellows as the season changed to autumn. I wandered along Glen Brook, into the deeper shadows, which made the forest above seem brighter, even on this gray day. After a rainy spell, the brook was up, flowing faster, like life itself seems to be these days. I wonder, if I stood ankle deep in the water, if the current would tug at me...urging me to stay shallow and go with the flow. Knee deep, I would move upstream, better to keep my balance, which is precarious lately, tipping in the wrong direction. I let my thoughts take me soul deep, and hope for redemption.

California incense cedar. Bonus micromoth included free! Swanson Meadow south of Shaver Lake, California.
What I liked on this shot was the bottom tip there was just a dot of light out of a ridge that caught light just above the tip.
Lots of Orange Tip Butterflies in the garden yesterday on the wildflowers - thanks to #NoMowMay. They really like the Cuckoo Flowers and I noticed a bit of a commotion on this one!
My first Orange Tip (Female) of the season on my local patch of Woodgate Country Park Birmingham. 19th April 2021
TIPS - LOOKING CLOSE.. ON FRIDAY! You know it is not easy taking a photo of your fingers while they are holding your phone camera.
Found this male Orange tip butterfly (Anthocharis cardamines) in the garden the other week.
According to "UK Butterflies": "The Orange-tip is a true sign of spring, being one of the first species to emerge that has not overwintered as an adult. The male and female of this species are very different in appearance. The more-conspicuous male has orange tips to the forewings, that give this butterfly its name. These orange tips are absent in the female and the female is often mistaken for one of the other whites, especially the Green-veined White or Small White. This butterfly is found throughout England, Wales and Ireland, but is somewhat-local further north and especially in Scotland. In most regions this butterfly does not form discrete colonies and wanders in every direction as it flies along hedgerows and woodland margins looking for a mate, nectar sources or foodplants. More northerly colonies are more compact and also more restricted in their movements." www.ukbutterflies.co.uk
