#MacroMondays#Condiments

Ich habe im Frühjahr keimende Knoblauchzehen in einen Blumentopf gesteckt und heute geerntet *lach*

Heute Abend gibt es

Spaghetti aglio e olio !

HMM

I put sprouting garlic cloves in a flower pot in the spring and harvested today *lol*.

Tonight we have

spaghetti aglio e olio !

HMM

When I heard that the Macro Monday theme was veggies I knew I wanted in. I was thinking along the chive/onion/leek line but when I went to the store I didn't see anything that jumped out at me except for a possible shoot with cauliflower against a white background. I decided to pass and kept looking. I started to look into small onions but then I saw a bin with cloves of garlic. I looked through the bin and came across this clove! I found what I was looking for, and at $0.79/clove the price was right. When I presented it to the cashier, he looked at me funny and suggested I get one in better shape because this one had sprouted. I asked him to be careful with it because I wanted to photograph it. He then asked that I wait a minute and kept looking at the clove while he made a phone call. It seems store policy is to throw out cloves like this and in the end I got it for FREE! Free is nice and with that as a backstory here is my macro garlic clove shot.

The clove measures 2.5 (W) X 2.75 (T) and was shot with my: 55mm f/2.8 NIKKOR Micro lens with a two shot stack. Light provided through a south facing window with the clove sitting on some black paper.

Make for MacroMondays group, Vegetable theme.

Now its off to a cup of water for a little more growing and perhaps another shoot in a few weeks!

Wild Garlic in woodland at Llantarnam.

Spring brings magic to the forest and now the Wild Garlic is popping up everywhere. Not yet to its top but good enough to make some shots.

Please view in large!

Many thanks for your visit.

My kitchen necessity.

HMM!

Macro Mondays: Kitchen

Black garlic is fermented white garlic... tastes very good, is healthy and you don’t smell like consumption

in the garden and very invasive... but they do make the prettiest tiny flowers... so I leave them and then I'll weed wack them down!!

Garlic is one of the healthiest foods on earth. Low in calories but very high in nutrition, with many health properties: anti blood coagulation, antioxidant, antiviral, antimicrobial..................

A forest full of wild garlic on my isolation walk

A woodland full of wild garlic

If you like the smell of Garlic the Skipton castle wood is a walk you will enjoy. Yorkshire.

Garlics believed can keep you away from the cuspids of vampires, if you make a necklace of garlics and wear it. But I also guess that the cupid doesn't want to bring you a mate, if you smells of garlics from that necklace.

Just kidding and Happy Macro your Monday... ha ha :D

"Thank you very much for all your faves"

Thanks for your visit and comments I appreciate that very much

Our woodlands are a wash with the sights and smell of wild garlic at this time of year and I managed to captured some in a small local wood in my home town.
