I haven't seen a sky like this in awhile, so thought I'd post this one....and also felt the need to take a break from my macro mania ;-)

Thanks to all who have taken the time to comment, much appreciated :-)

Our Daily Challenge: ODC MACRO MANIA

Macro Mania entries are due this weekend for the OhioFoothills' challenge.

A Twig

Tiger Flower, Påfågelslilja, Tigerblomma, Tigridia povonia.

This exotic Mexican bulb is sometimes called peacock flower, an appropriate name in view of its quite startling colour combinations- all the shades of scarlet, orange, pink, yellow, mauve and white, usually with contrasting markings.

Exotisk medlem av irisfamiljen med svärdsliknande bladverk och iögonfallande 10 cm stora blommor i gult, rött, rosa och rent vitt,

Color Magic - Hybrid Tea Rose

Tulip macro that I thought would look right at home in a modern art museum!

My friend Aaron gave me his dedicated macro lens to try out for a few days. It's opened up a whole new world to me, just like he said it would.

1. Directly onto my Nikon body F mount using a 58mm thread to Nikon F mount adapter.

2, Onto the front of my Nikon 55-300 mm lens using a 58/58mm coupling adapter.

For the time being, I have to hand-hold the lens in place (not very convenient, especially if you have les than 3 hands!).

This climbing rose on our front arbor greeted me when I went to get the mail the other day. It said, "please take my picture."
