Clean stem glasses are stored upside down in a bar. A play of warm light, shadows and reflections. The impression of cleanliness.

tiny bubbles... look close!

I always look for pumpkins with fun stems.

12 - 24mm wide angle lens used near to the stem to give that long stem effect.

This flower was just taken from a vase of flowers and held up to the sky for the shot.

Just a quick sharpen and contrast boost added and a little lens flare just for effect !

Protecting it's face, the Drinker Moths get their name from the caterpillars which have a habit of drinking large droplets of rainwater or dew from the grass stems on which they feed. Drinker moth caterpillars are usually seen between April and July...

In case you are interested in what is going on here..... the original colours were dark stems against a pale blue sky. I didn't like the look of the dark stems - so I gave in did some heavy-handed processing instead of my standard Lightroom only routine. I don't have Photoshop, so I did this in Gimp.....split out the blue channel as a B&W image, inverted it and then added it on top a flat coloured deep indigo layer to add back some colour.

More fiddling (lockdown boredom)

The winding stem on my Grandfather's gold pocket watch. For the Macro Mondays Group. Topic: As long as it ticks." HMM! Looking at the group's postings it is clear I was not the first to think of this idea. Many of us seem to have watches both wrist and pocket on the brain. If you aren't a member of Macro Mondays, you might want to check out all of the ticking shots the gang came up with. www.flickr.com/groups/macromonday/

Last night I opened a bottle of Prosecco and, yes, I can down a whole bottle in one evening, but I didn't. What was left, was a well earned reward for spending most of today gardening.

One leaf amongst a whole scramble of branches and stems.

Another shot of this tiny Ceutorhynch (Seed) Weevil that I posted a couple of weeks back. As I noted previously, you really get no idea how small they are from a photo, but believe me when I say it was no more than 3mm long.

"Blanket Flower Stem" by Patti Deters. A single Indian Blanket flower (Gaillardia pulchella) dares to bloom in a sea of green, a beacon of color against the muted blurred background. Its fiery hues seem to dance in the sunlight, a reminder of nature's vibrant palette. This wildflower is a striking blend of yellow and red petals that are pinked (pinnatifid) on the edges atop a tall perfectly straight stem. Soft bokeh effects in the background enhance the dreamy, serene and minimalist atmosphere. Thank you for viewing this image. If you like simple outdoor nature photography, please enjoy more flowers and other plant-focused images at patti-deters.pixels.com/featured/blanket-flower-stem-patt....

The Stem. I loved how this stem seemed so alive as if it was just cut yesterday. Still green - still fresh.

I visited Lisbon, Portugal in December, 2019, shortly before Christmas. It's a fabulous city full of local character and colour. These local vendors sell amazing, high-quality produce with a smile. Fast forward half a year of world-turmoil due to Covid-19, I hope they are still surviving and making a living.

I've given in to the flowers... no telling how long this will last.
