  3. They don't quite look like something from this part of the world, but I agree with Eng, they look like tear drops.

  6. They are salal blossoms. The beautiful and evergreen plants are all over the Pacific Northwest - by the end of July they will have round black berries that the Native Americans used as an important part of their diet.

    I have tried to capture the beauty of their flowers, but never as well as this.

  7. Those are the flowers from a Salal plant, very common in our forests. Sometimes the leaves are included in flower bouquets. Nice shot too.
