The Robert Mapplethorpe and Patti Smith exhibit at Marie Selby Botanical Gardens interprets Mapplethorples photographs of plants and flowers in the gardens. Yes, these pedestals stand in the koi pond and yes, those are koi placidly swimming.

 

Scaphyglottis mesocopis is a tiny orchid. Each of these blossoms is about one half inch. This plant originated in Costa Rica.  I made this photo from 10 stacked shots using a macro lens to reveal greater depth of field than from a single exposure.
