We love this great macro style photo, it is the best way to capture all of the great colours from the lovely flower. This flowery photo is an amazing addition to the Summer Collection.

Macro Magic: Strange Worlds Of Sensual Organs In Tint Flowers - IMRAN™
It was difficult to take this handheld macro photo of flowers in an outdoor architectural planter outside my neighbor's home. It was very windy. I had two German Shepherds on two leashes I was also holding, while carrying two Nikon cameras, the D300 and the D850, testing out some macro photography ideas. But this one with its vivid shades and hues was worth sharing with you.

A bit of macro magic.. ;D
It's officially fall so I thought I'd kick off the season with a little mushroom magic. What can I say, I'm a fun guy... #punintended
fun facts:
The first Fabergé egg (or imperial egg), was created for Czar Alexander III in the 1800's as an Easter gift for his wife, Czarina Maria.

I recently upgraded to a Nikon D200 and this shot was taken with that camera equipped with a Nikkor 18-200mm VR lens coupled with a Canon 500D closeup filter.
I've decided to sell my gently used Nikon D80.... and before I put it up on eBay, I thought I would mention it here so if any of my Flickr friends have need for a D80 body at a very reasonable price, they could get one from me. I'm going to offer it for $625 - which is $50 below what the lowest used D80 sold for on eBay this week.
Please contact me via Flickr or email if you are interested.
Commonly called the Red Admiral, this butterfly is a holarctic species, found also in Europe and northern Asia. It is widespread in North America and is found from coast to coast in Canada, north to the tip of Newfoundland and to Churchill, Manitoba. Vanessa comes from the Greek meaning butterfly, atalanta comes from the Greek meaning "balanced".

When nature gets crafty... this fine feathered friend makes a colorful entrance! Hand-made beauty meets macro magic in home garden.
For a week I rented the Nikon's legendary macro lens, the Nikon 200mm f/4. It has no VR, so for close macro work it almost requires the use of a tripod or mono-pod. Of course I immediately broke that 'rule', preferring as always to shoot handheld. That means many more pictures need to be taken in order to get a sharp shot, and it usually means higher ISO's due to a faster shutter speed to offset the motion of my hands as I shoot.
The next series of shots will feature results from this lens, all handheld and in natural light. In the end, I liked its color rendition, contrast, and the ability to work macro magic with a bit more distance to the subject, helpful especially with subjects like bugs and bees. The closest focus distance is about 19 inches to achieve the 1:1 ratio. For a hand-holder like me, I would much prefer VR (vibration reduction) on this lens to offset my hand motion.
But for most people who do proper macro technique with a tripod setup, this is no big deal.
All in all, it is a great lens, and I can see why the design has not been changed for over 20 years. It is still being sold brand new by Nikon despite its age and 'old' technology!

I have a few more macro shots that I took for the last Macro Monday's holiday bokeh theme and wanted to share them with you while still in holiday mode.These are fine details on one tinsel ball using 3 extension tubes on my 100 mm macro lens.
When you drop a raisin in the glass of champagne, do you know what it will do? It is going to bounce up and down from the bottom of the top, continuously.
In the song lyrics from 'Hotel California' from The Eagles
they had "..mirrors on the ceiling.. ♪ ♫ pink champagne on ice.."
Pink Champagne was made famous in the 1957 classic movie 'An Affair to Remember' when both of the lead romantic actors fall in love with each other and share 'pink bubbly'.

Champagne is made from four different grapes:
1. Chardonnay (white wine grape)
2. Pinot Noir (red wine grape)
3. Pinot Meunier
4. Pinot Gris
So how come all Champagne is not pink?
fun facts:
Grapes are all white on the inside and it is only the outside skin that has any color. Therefore one can make a white wine out of a red grape; just remove the skins immediately so that there is no red color added to the wine liquid.
For example Zinfandel is a white wine yet zinfandel is a red grape. To make a white Zinfandel, they just let the skins stay on the liquid for a short while, this allows a small amount of the tint from the red skin color the wine liquid, giving it a nice blush color.
When they make a Champagne, even though they use 'red grapes' they take the skin away immediately so that none of the red color from the skin affects the overall color of the Champagne liquid.
In order to make a Champagne a pink Champagne, all they have to do is let the skins sit with the liquid for a short while. The longer it sits together, the more blush pink the liquid becomes.
Happy Valentine's Day ♡ flickr friends : )
