Macro f/22.0
Looking up through the glass base of a red wine glass into the stem. The stem is .5" wide. The image area of the base is approximately 2" wide. The stem is 3" from the base to the glass. It's red glass, with a small LED flashlight inside.

We bought a one litre bottle of industrial window cleaner to dilute as required. It has sat on my window sill, in the sunshine, for a while.....unused! But today as I sat, bored, working from home and thinking of Macro Mondays, I noticed the condensation in the neck of the plastic bottle. The theme is "Fill the Frame" so I photographed this section which is only 3 cm tall. The bubbles are on the other side of the plastic.... Oh, and I flipped it vertically
The theme for today’s Snap Happy was “Material” provided by Gary. I tried to shoot a few different sorts of materials and didn’t get any images I really liked a lot, this one is the one I disliked the least. It’s a white running sock, up very close.

This is a head-on shot of one end of a hand-blown glass conch shell. The shell is about 8"x5"x4" but this image is only 2 1/2" across.
Happy Macro Monday : )

Day 185/365:
Pain stops play I'm afraid. An iPhone shot of one of the peonies in a vase on my lounge table. I'm in too much pain with my back to pick up my camera and try to manoeuvre myself into position to photograph anything. Thank goodness for my iPhone and the quality of the camera or I would have definitely been out of the game today.
Hibiscus sp. recruited to replenish our container garden, lost entirely in the Great Freeze known as Winter Storm Uri. Love the textured petals.

"Smile on Saturday" theme: Blue for you - 2025 (Blue as the main colour)
On May 12 it's ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia International Awareness Day. May 12 was chosen as it coincided with the birth date of Florence Nightingale, the celebrated English social reformer and statistician, and the founder of modern nursing. Nightingale became chronically ill in her mid-thirties after returning from the Crimean War; the M.E.- like illness often left her bedridden during the last 50 years of her life.

Thank you for your visit! 💙

Macro Mondays: Fill the frame

#FillTheFrame!
Width of the frame: 1,5 cm / 0,59 inches
Please press "Z" (double-zoom recommended) :-)
Last night, I debated with myself whether I fell short of the "Fill the Frame" theme or not. I have not arranged similar-looking things within the frame, and there are some parts of the image that look like free space, but actually aren't, because all of what you see is the surface of an agate "worry stone", the same that I'd captured for the "Patterns in Nature" theme back in July 2019 (please see first comment). So this frame is entirely filled with agate. And especially this agate is full of those fascinating "macro secrets", which is why I keep returning to it for yet another capture. Well, and since I like the outcome, I've decided to risk to add it to the MM group pool ;-) While my photo for "Patterns in Nature" reminded me of storms on Jupiter, this part of the agate to me actually looks like a volcanic deepsea scene, and those super tiny wick-, or even worm-like (giant tube worms! Please see the quote from Wikipedia below) looking "pipes" reminded me of hydrothermal vents (also know as black or white smokers) found around submarine volcanic activity, while those floret-shaped rings all around those "pipes" remind me of some quite intense hot water / lava bubble action ;-)
Here is some very interesting background info on the "smokers" that I'd rather quote (Wikipedia): "Relative to the majority of the deep sea, the areas around submarine hydrothermal vents are biologically more productive, often hosting complex communities fueled by the chemicals dissolved in the vent fluids. Chemosynthetic bacteria and archaea form the base of the food chain, supporting diverse organisms, including giant tube worms, clams, limpets and shrimp. Active hydrothermal vents are thought to exist on Jupiter's moon Europa, and Saturn's moon Enceladus, and it is speculated that ancient hydrothermal vents once existed on Mars."
Like my "Jupiter Weather Report" photo this is a backlit, in-camera focus stack, and I used my Kenko extension tubes (this time the 16 mm extension tube only) and the Raynox DCR-250 Super Macro close-up lens to get closer to the subject. Sharpening and de-noising done in Topaz Sharpen AI and processed in LR and ON1 Photo Raw where I applied the "Natural" HDR filter - ON1's jack of all trades -, and the LUT filters "Keen" and "1975" (each filter with some individual tweaking and sliding).
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone, and Happy Pentecost Monday to the Flickr friends who celebrate Pentecost :-) !
I'll not be another flower, picked for my beauty and left to duy. I'll be wild , difficult to find , and impossible to forget
Baseballs are hand-stitched, with 108 stitches in the cowhide leather of each ball, done by hand. The leather is prepared with a rolling machine, and the stitching process is done after the leather is prepared. These hand-sewn stitches create an aerodynamic surface that improves flight and grip.

Day 191/365:
A succulent at Holt Garden Centre. In Norfolk. I'm so thankful for this iPhone 13 Pro. Faffed with in Snapseed.
3 square inches of cyclamen flowers, pink and purple mingling in one plant. Shot for Macro Monday's theme "'fill the frame," but not uploaded on time. Still, here it is on my photostream, at least. One photo a day. (153/366) Bayside, Queens, NYC -- June 1, 2020
Macro Mondays and the theme "Fill the frame".
For this theme I first had the idea of photographing the pattern in a flower pot but I was not happy with the results.
Then I decided to use this Connect 4 game as my subject as it would showcase three different colours.
First I set up some of the game pieces and then I focussed the camera at exactly three inches.
Having the game square to the plane of focus meant that not too many of the game pieces were visible so then I set the board at an angle which would get a bit more into the field of view.
