We have this growing on the posts of our carport, and blooms every spring. Any help with the ID would be appreciated.

Isn't it some type of jasmine? Is it really fragrant!

Cool. I like the 2 dimensional look in this. Wall to wall patterns. Almost abstract.

It looks like "Confederate jasmine," or at least that's what they call it in Florida. Beautiful, clear shot of this wonderfully fragrant flower.

Robert - Back home in India, Jasmine fetches top dollar specially during festive season. They are the flower of choice for ladies and also religious offerings.

I like the counter CW motion in the petals (implied). A fine frame filling shot :cool:

Bob:
This is an abstract look with white spots sprinkled on the green. Very soothing to look at.

I think in shots like this you can improve an image if you find an interesting pattern/ shadings that brings order/ structure to the image.
