In this splendid floral arrangement, the tiny lantana flowers reveal their subtle radiance. Gathered in tight clusters, they form a veritable little plant firework, where yellow, orange and pink gently intertwine. Photographed in Saen Monourom, Cambodia, these flowers, typical of tropical climates, offer a delicate spectacle to the attentive eye. Their tubular shape attracts many pollinators, including butterflies, who are seduced by their light fragrance and rich nectar. The dark background, blurred by the depth of field, highlights the delicacy of each petal, creating a striking contrast with the deep green of the foliage. The lantana is both an ornamental and a hardy plant, capable of thriving in a variety of climatic conditions, while still flowering generously. This image captures a moment of natural beauty, a perfect balance of colour, texture and light. It reminds us just how many discreet but fascinating wonders are to be found in tropical biodiversity.
