Bridge of Flowers, Shelburne
I am quite familiar with the wild Jack-in-the-Pulpit, but had never seen this domesticated version before. It was one of the many beautiful blooms on the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne. The sign next to it called it a Japanese Jack-in-the-Pulpit (Arisaema sikokianum). I thought it quite handsome and captured this image with a tripod-mounted DSLR camera and a medium-length telephoto lens.
