I saw this flower at Wilson's Creek Battlefield last night. I didn't have my tripod with me, but it is such an interesting flower I thought I would include it anyway.

This has got to be one of the coolest flowers I've ever seen. If you run across them again, try taking getting a shot kind of from the side but still showing the top, it shows all the layers and fingery like things.

Sheryll is right it does look like a carnival ride. And it is an amazingly cool looking flower. Glad you included it for us.

Wow, that's a flower that looks sort of like a wedding cake, all layers with different stuff on each.

Wow! Beautiful capture of a passion flower. Well done. I've seen a few tight macro shots of these blooms and they are so amazing.
