No time for much right now so this was supposed to be a quick photo that ended up taking longer than expected (as they often do)!
Processed with Flyapaper Apple Blush and shagreen bone
This one shows the very thin DOF with this lens at large aperature. I thought I focused on the tip of the stem, but I really focused on the area just below the stem. I don't know if my eyesight is bad or if I was careless.

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.
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/

PLEASE dont forget to add your photos to this group I cant beleive they have still not met the 30,000 photos target, and its nearly end Oct, so only a week left.
For each pink photo you add to www.flickr.com/groups/pink2008, Yahoo! for Good will donate €1, up to a maximum of €30,000. They will split the total equally between 5 charities in UK, Germany, France, Spain and Italy.
As far as im concerned $30,000 isnt nearly enough but every little helps.
Lets add our PINK photos to the group please.

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.

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