Well I certainly love & am fascinated with these beauties in nature. I will first post my one of my favourites.
All along the shoreline of a marsh. Horned Bladderwort (Utricularia cornuta) Alleyn-et-Cawood, Québec, Canada:

Shoot these beauties with an Olympus FE47,X43 using the macro feature...it was my first macro capable camera.

Now, don't hassle me on focus for this next one It was the hardest flower I ever had to photograph & I got wet doing it. It is also super rare to see and come across, hence the conservation status.

OMG, so very excited, I just came across these photos and the plant was in flower to my surprise and these plants are hard to photograph in flower due to the long stalk of the plant:
