I love collecting shells at the beach - picked this tiny one up at Nudgee Beach yesterday. It was half buried in water so I've tried to replication how I found it in a stacked macro image.

underside of a common moth. It’s body and wings are covered with scales in the same way we see scales on a fish..

For Macro Mondays' "Bubbles" theme. This is a blue glass pitcher with lots of little bubbles in the glass. The out of focus blobs are highlights from the other side of the pitcher. Lighting is done mostly with an Ikea reading light coming in from the top. Background behind the pitcher was black board. The area covered is probably less than an inch across.

I created this 100-frame focus stack today during the annual flower and macro class at Boston Photography Workshops. I took my first introductory class with them a couple years ago, and it was a big help to get me started. I've since taken many workshops with them, such as food, pet, and flash.

Took a walk in the local park to see large numbers of "Hibernating" Ladybugs. This is the biggest bunch we found.

"Okay gang, let's get organised!"

"Stop shoving!"

"Hey, get that tail-feather outa my face!"

"Down in front!"

"Hey everyone, look at the black cocky - he looks like Darth Vader!"

"Hahaha, you're right!"

"Don't tease him!"

"I'm warning you - get that tail-feather outa my face!"

"Why do I have to stand next to the penguin?"

"Oops, I think I blinked, can we take it again?"

And so it goes.....

Happy Easter everyone!

Greetings from the native bird collection from Australia.

Eye detail of a Butterfly with Mitutoyo 5x - Stack of 147 images

This fungus is closely related to lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus). Like lion's mane, it is also edible, but I always enjoy finding this because of its beauty.

This is a focus stack of around 12 images, taken at night and illuminated by a small light panel.
