Week 5: A Garden Variety - Encounter at Farpoint

Encounter at Farpoint
SF Botanical Gardens

Visiting the SF Botanical Gardens I found this really crazy flower! I don't what type it is but man do I love it! Images like this one I really love because not only does it include my love of flowers but it brings to mind other nerdy ideas to mind. This flower, with all the spiky points, reminds me of the Crystaline Entity from Star Trek. I can't help but think of that every time I look at this image...and then I want to watch Star Trek....it's a vicious cycle!
