Macro Mondays Theme: TWO. I didn't join this wonderful group until June so I went with one I hadn't done before. I chose the theme from April 4th which is our anniversary. Very apropos the theme was Two! 😊 The wheat was from a bouquet my daughter received when she graduated a couple of weeks ago from WSU Pullman.

Layers: kernels, silk and husk

Such a determined lill guy. He didn't stop until every kernel of corn was off the cob.

Zea mays, with exposed kernels and silk. We depend on this plant for lots and lots of our food, whether or not we realize it.

Thanks for looking! Isn't God a great artist?

Winter is always a good time to shoot birds - this blue jay caught going after a dried corn cob.

I watched it take of about 8-10 kernels off the cob right in a row in less than a minute.

This traditional Five-kernel Mooncake recipe is a savory mooncake that translates to “mooncake with five types of nuts.” The five types are: walnuts (核桃仁, hetao ren), Chinese almonds, or bitter almonds (杏仁, xin ren), regular almonds (橄榄仁, gannan ren), pumpkin seeds (瓜子仁, guazi ren), and sesame seeds (芝麻仁, zhima ren). The flavorful moon cake is rich in nutrition and symbolizes the prosperous and rich life shared by the three generations, party of five of the family!! 🎉

This image was captured for the Macro Mondays theme: "negative space".

There were at least 10 of these beauties foraging around on the ground in the early am.

Some mucking around with a completely uninspiring photo.

But I rather like the black and white with something in the middle. HSS

Apricot kernel contains a toxic chemical known as amygdalin. In the body this chemical is converted to cyanide, which goes throughout the body, where it can cause serious harm, including death.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated

Pomegranate kernels [Punica granatum - Lythraceae family]

Blue Jays are often heard before they are seen. It has been my experience that only the young jays are less skittish. The mature ones hide in the trees, then swoop in quickly to grab a nut or guzzle corn kernels. The minute they see me, off they go!

Can you sing the Happy Munching Song?

In the English language, kernel and colonel are pronounced the same.

Bank holiday here in Ireland today. I'd already picked a "corn on the cob" from our polytunnel this afternoon ready to cook with dinner & have been commenting on a my Flickr friends' various amazing Macro Monday photos.

So I thought hey why not give it a go? It's been a while since I dragged my proper Canon camera out. Photographed on my trusty old purple hoodie HMM!

Da aktuell mein Arch-Linux das Spiel "Finde meine Kernel nicht!" mit mir spielen mag, werde ich mich jetzt mal um den PC bekümmern.

Bedeutet für euch. Kein Text! Also kaum Text. Also, nur das bisschen Text, dass ich benötige um euch mitzuteilen, dass es kein Text gibt. Was wiederum sich selbst widerspricht.

Ach egal. Meine 64-Bit Diva mag Aufmerksamkeit. So soll sie es bekommen.

Cya. ;)
