I came across the image of the following plant, identified
only as "Yellow Fingers", and wondered if it was of the genus
"Strelitzia"?

The reason that I thought that it might be is that it bears
some resemblance to a plant that I recently photographed.
This plant that I photographed was a "Crane Flower" or
"Strelitzia reginae":
