How the contest works:
1. The host gives a topic.
2. You post up to 3 of your images that go along with the topic.
3. The host chooses the winner 7 days after the contest was started.
4. The winner becomes the host for the next week. If the winner does not post a new contest within 2 days, the 2nd place winner is the new host.

Camelia Bernice Boddy taken in the Missouri Botanical Garden in almost darkness. This was illuminated by a single beam of light through the roof right smack on top in the center of the bloom. I don't have the exposure information, but I know it was a very long exposure with a tripod. Only a very long exposure would give this kind of illumination.
