Close-up details of the centre of a sunflower.
The florets in the centre of the head are known as disc florets (or disk flowers). These turn into fruit (sunflower "seeds"). The disc florets are grouped in a spiral pattern. The outer yellow petals are called ray flowers,

Enjoy.

Dimorphotheca ecklonis.
There are about 50 species, native to Africa. The daisy-like composite flower consists of disc florets and ray florets. The disc florets are pseudo-bisexual and come in several colors such as blue, yellow and purple. The hardy types usually show a dark blue center in the disc until the yellow pollen is shed. The ray florets are female and are found diverse colors such as white, cream, pink, purple, mauve to yellow. The flowering period is from April to September in the northern hemisphere.

This is a three image focus stack, where there is slightly deeper depth of field (range of focus) than in a single image. I also kept a copy of just the center frame of the stack to compare. When stacking in the field there is always a risk of enough movement that a focus stack will not work well. The single frame in this instance looked pretty good with almost as much of the bee in focus. Where the difference really became obvious was the sharpness of the ray florets (yellow petals) and the disc florets (the little tubular things).
Focus stacking is just a tool, where you can extend your sharp range of focus under the right condidtions. Having said that just because one can get deeper depth of field doesn't mean it will be better, or should be used. I think each scene and or subject has to be looked at individually before one can decide upon which settings and tools to use.
Here, I do like that there is more in focus than the single frame, so i feel that using the focus stacking as being successful and was a good choice to try.
Note: This guy was pretty still, and it was a calm morning. We had had some heavy rain the night before. I believe he spent the night on the flower. Parts of his fuzzy bits still appeared wet. I felt lucky to get a focus stack in the field. View large if you can for best detail as this one is about detail more than composition.

Anyone know what this plant is? Is it native to Australia?

Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny. Aristotle.
Aristotle (384–322 BC) was a Greek philosopher and polymath during the Classical period in Ancient Greece. Taught by Plato, he was the founder of the Lyceum, the Peripatetic school of philosophy, and the Aristotelian tradition. His writings cover many subjects including physics, biology, zoology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, poetry, theatre, music, rhetoric, psychology, linguistics, economics, politics, meteorology and government. Aristotle provided a complex synthesis of the various philosophies existing prior to him. It was above all from his teachings that the West inherited its intellectual lexicon, as well as problems and methods of inquiry. As a result, his philosophy has exerted a unique influence on almost every form of knowledge in the West and it continues to be a subject of contemporary philosophical discussion.

Milkweed Florets are a bunch of tiny little flowers - It is very hard to see all of the details in each one....This is why I so LOVE Macro...there is a scene within a scene ...Check out that star in the center - who knew? :)

Masterwort
Astrantia maxima
Parsley Family - Apiaceae
Native to the Caucasus, Iran & Turkey
A beautiful and unusual flower that also comes in a variety of color, Astrantia grows to be about 1 to 2 feet tall. The flower is a group of tightly packed florets that are backed by petal-like bracts. This makes the flower look very much like a star or a firework. The leaves look a little bit like Italian parsley or carrots which is not surprising as Astrantia are in the same family as carrots.

Sedum florets.
The sedums are just coming out as we move into Autumn. And the bees are having tremendous fun!
I took this today in the front garden where there are a lot of sedums growing in drifts. I thought the dappled pinks might make it a suitable subject for this week’s Smile on Saturday’s Pretty in Pastel theme.
Although the image lacks a strong composition it does appeal to me as I love the patterns and symmetries of flowers. It’s a macro about a couple of inches across…
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image! Happy Smile on Saturday :)
[Handheld in diffuse sunlight.
Developed in Capture One trying to control the saturation (it’s meant to be pastels!) and getting a balance between softness and detail. Tried to take down some of the brighter pinks but kept the complementary green active for colour contrast. Went for as high a key as I could without losing the highlights or the pinks.
Processed in Affinity. Some gentle sharpening with Unsharp Mask. There was already quite a lot of pleasing DoF blur at the edges of the image but I added more with the DoF filter in Affinity; the filter was set to also enhance the Clarity in the centre. Used Curves in LAB mode to flatten (i.e. compressing) the contrast in the highlights.
White vignette.
Finally (playing around) added a white fill layer at low opacity on top to… er… whiten everything. Except not everything because I masked the centre out from the effect. It whitened the edges like the vignette but didn’t have the side effect of increasing the apparent colour contrast there (I think… it wasn’t quite the same anyway).]
