    Today I forgot to adjust my ISO setting....so all the images which I took this morning were set in very high ISO....so image quality is not so good.

    My main subject today is the red coloured pitcher plant called Nepenthes ampullaria. Also know as "red apples" from the tropical jungle of Borneo.


    Red Nepenthes ampullaria.







    Red apples!

    Wow, i like the sexy lips . There are so many 'unknown' beautiful things in our jungles. Is this the kind that "eats" insects, or is there another kind that looks slimmer?
