Poppy in Detail

I was looking at a very ornate poppy [name unknown] recently and marvelled at nature's wonderful design work. A closer look at the centre reveals more of its beauty.

    Beautiful and amazing when "biggified", and as Delwyn thought, very sea anemome-ish.

    Lovely. Does very much look like something you'd find along a shoreline in a tidal pool.

    Wow! It looks like a delicious confecton you'd find in an upscale bakery! Yum! And it's a variety of poppy? Luscious.

    The poppy looks like it could be popping out of an ocean reef.
