Un monde immense dans quelques centimètres.
Le silence d’un iris.
Le poids d’un souffle.
Et un passager minuscule.
EN :
A vast world within a few centimeters.
The silence of an iris.
The weight of a breath.
And one tiny passenger.
An ethereal portrayal of a Bird of Paradise flower (Strelitzia reginae) captured in graceful motion. The vibrant orange petals appear to flutter like wings against a lush green backdrop—blending the boundaries between botanical beauty and abstract art.
Happy Macro Monday :-D

Many thanks for your visit, comments and faves :-) !

by request: in a dark room, i use an infrared sensor to shoot the flashes. That´s why the time of exposure is 5 seconds.
This was just a test shot to see if my Speedlites were in sync. They are, and it produced a strange splash with a drop sinking right through the column and another one on it's way through. I just used a roasting pan with water and dropped skim milk into it.
I left this one a bit larger to see the weirdness.
Didn't have time to do a Valentine's Day theme picture so I liquified the little cap on this splash into a heart shape. Just a fun shot ;-)
Rosemary Beetle (Chrysolina americana) on Lavender (Lavandula; in the mint family, Lamiaceae) branch!
It is an attractive 5mm long metallic green beetle with purple stripes on its wing cases and thorax. The beetle devours the leaves of rosemary, lavender, thyme, sage and some other related plants. The beetle is a native of southern Europe that has become an established pest in Britain since the 1990s.

"La particolare pianta, scoperta nel 1779 dal botanico e geologo austriaco barone Franz Xaver de Wulfen (nato a Belgrado nel 1728 e morto a Klagenfurt nel 1805), è molto rara ed è visibile solo in una zona particolare dei Balcani, tra l’Albania e il Montenegro, in Siria e in Himalaya."

Canon EOS 6D + Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 2,8 / 100 @ 1/1250 f/2.8
One drop of milk dropped onto another drop. I think this shows the scale of exactly how small these drops actually are. This cap fits on a 58 mm. lens. Not exactly the result I was hoping for, but with the clean-up after each drop, I was quite willing to settle for this one out of the lot. Had to have the tripod fully extended to place the camera almost directly over the drop. This meant having to stand on a chair each time to replace the lens cap after cleaning.
Probably won't do any more of these ;-)
