That is very revealing, pipeline! It just shows you how close all living organisms really are. IMO.

Thanx everyone, i really love these shots, I should have posted them sooner. One of the things that amazed me when i first saw these was the pistils. They are just a bunch of little fiber tubes waiting to catch a pollen grain which will then germinate and grow a tube down the pistil. These plants have a lot going on.......fun stuff.
