I used to have a black A4 sized wooden light board with black rough colour and a piece of graph paper at one corner. Wwhatever plant I got, I used to keep it on the board in parts or complete to take some pictures, apart from the normal habitat shots. It really helps a lot later during morphometrics. Thanks a lot for sharing this beautiful pic of the beautiful plant. Regards Pankaj
