      @Tacodidra, I find the UV images to be quite fascinating. We cannot see those dark markers on the flowers, without a UV sensitive camera. I wonder if it's some sort of signaling for bees? They can see UV light.  :ooh:

      On the infrared side, nearly all vegetation on the planet strongly reflects Near IR light. Why? Some sort of mechanism to reflect excessive heat from sunlight? :ooh:

      Guess I should find a book on this subject  :twismile:
