Since I tend to refrain from taking photos of ornate things or buildings, I couldn’t at first come up with anything for the challenge. However, yesterday, going through some recent shots, I found several of tall Celosia flowers taken in front of Purdue University horticulture department. I remember they were a riot of color, a jumble of flowers competing for attention, and no one could help noticing them even from afar.
Zooming in on individual stalks, the flowers were still quite ornate!

Once in a while we wonder why nature creates such beauty for us to admire. Evolution theory, geology, science, all can only explain so much. For the rest we simply marvel and admire. Thank you Doda for such a nice comment!
