Who knew giftwrapping paper could look like this! Isn't it great what a shallow DOF can do?

Created for Macro Mondays 'Paper'' theme (28-Sep-2020).

A clearer shot of my setup in the comments. Taken using extension tubes as usual.

Hoping you all have a happy MM and a good week. Love from NZ :-)

This is a decorative string made of recycled paper and my second attempt to understand what the word string means😊

In any case, let's protect nature!

Paper Daisy in the Australian Botanic Gardens.

Native paper wasps (Polistes sp.) making a nest in my backyard. An egg has been laid in each of the compartments, but they have not yet sealed them. They started to get aggressive and tried to sting me, so I didn't wait around to watch them seal up each compartment!

I don't know what kind of wild flowering bush/weed this was but it was LOADED with wasps, bees and flies!

This was shot in the prairie restoration area of Black Hawk State Park.

Not quite whiter than white. I enjoyed this challenge but couldn't get this without the blue tint. Will revisit another day and play with white balance settings more.

Originally taken for Macro Mondays @ Paper but a huge winter storm knocked out all the power in town and was unable to have internet access.

Nice to have blue skies today.

Does anybody use road maps anymore ?

Happy Wednesday Macro :-)

I did not know there is something called “origami paper" you can buy to do things like this. The creation here is called paper bowtie. It is originally from Spain (I did not know either)... Pajarita de papel. Truly homemade :-)

Because darkroom paper is orthochromatic, the colour response isn't what you might expect - the petals of this sunflower are actually yellow and the background should be black ...

Stayed still long enought to get a few shots.

An abstract made from post it notes and lit with with coloured gels over the speed lights.
