Single Chicory Stamen with Pollen Granules

2 pictures and 1 note above!

When I took both Chicory pictures, there was a slight breeze and I was holding the camera and used manual focus. All of these factors have impacted the clarity of this picture, but still, it's not bad. It is amazing working with such a razor-thin dof. I would move my camera slightly closer and then backwards, taking a picture as soon as I felt the focus was right. VERY HARD to keep anything in focus for more than a split second!

A lovely shot, definitely looks sugar coated. And yes, playing with near-zero DOF is an interesting process. :)

That is really nice, it has wonderful symmetry, and a very calming feel.

hier in der Stadt wuchern sie im Grünstreifen zwischen Straße und Fahrradweg bzw Fußweg. so langsam verblühen sie, aber es ist dann immer eine blaue Pracht. Der deutsche Name Wegwarte passt da so gut. Weg und warte (way and wait)

Hammeraufnahme, ich habe bei meinen ersten Testbildern mit dem Raynox gemerkt, wie schwer es freihand zu bedienen ist. Stativ und Makroschlitten ist da wohl einfacher, aber wer will das mitschleppen :-)
