Lowland rainforest with fallen flowers -
Laagland regenwoud met gevallen bloemen

Image ID:

Date:

Location: 
Swamp Forest,
Nimbokrang,
Sentani,
West Papua,
Indonesia
Description: 

This picture was made in the swamp forest, close to Jamil's house in Nimokrang. In some areas a vine species was abundantly flowering. A full-grwon vine holds thousands of red fleshy flowers, which attracted a lot of parrots. At the end of my stay, and after some heavy rainfall, most of the flowers had dropped down. The forest floor colored completely red, giving the forest an enchanted aspect.
