Passion Flowers are climbing vine plants, and they send out these wonderful tendrils to climb up trees. This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.

This is a graceful, curling tendril that will work its way upwards to pull the Passion Flower up higher and higher. Cool, eh?! :D This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.

(for those of you who are interested in seeing my San Francisco trip images, I have uploaded 10 pictures in this batch [178 in the past few weeks]. Thanks everyone for your comments and your visits to my photostream! I hope you enjoy the show!) (Oh, and yes, I know there are really too many pictures to be uploading at one time but I have too many images I want to put into my Flickr stream so it just can't be helped!) Ok, I have a confession to make. I didn't see this amazing Passion Flower in Golden Gate Park. It was on the walkway to the Golden Gate Bridge. I walked by and then it hit me....o...m...g...PASSION FLOWERS!!! Turn your butt around, stop looking at the bridge! You MUST take pictures of these amazing flowers!!! So I spent about 10 minutes taking pictures from different angles of these insanely beautiful, wacky flowers. Don't they look like they're from another planet?! By the way, for those of you who may not know, there is a very fun, free Flickr competition site which you might like to take part in. It's called FlickrDuel and features dozens of ongoing competitions, or duels every day. You can enter your pictures into many different categories and vote on contests too. It's another way to enjoy your photography! This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.

Simply out of this world, these flowers are so incredible, it seems as if they cannot actually be real! This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.
