Photo by @FransLanting: Borneo’s rafflesia is the largest flower in the world, with a diameter of up to three feet. The flower smells of rotting meat, attracting the carrion flies that pollinate the bloom before it collapses in a decomposing mass in a matter of one or two days. I found this rafflesia just as it was opening and spent an entire day with it. I placed strobes inside the flower to illuminate a pollinating fly as it descended into the odorous interior. This is one of the signature images for my project “LIFE: A Journey Through Time,” which we produced as a multimedia symphony that features my images and the music of Philip Glass. LIFE is a lyrical interpretation of the story of life on Earth, from the Big Bang to the present. The LIFE symphony has been staged around the world and for its 10th anniversary, it will be performed at Chicago’s Grant Park Music Festival on July 20, 2016. For those of you who can’t be there, I have posted several AV clips from the symphony at @FransLanting. Check out our website, www.lanting.com, for more information about LIFE.
