... that's how life feels like these days ; )
But at least I was able to squirrel away some minutes to take an image for Macro Mondays - theme: tiny
These cubic beads are only 5 mm wide (width of this image: about 2.5 cm)
taken with the manual 60mm Laowa ultra macro lens @ f8
Happy Macro Mondays, everyone !
I will be catching up tonight :)

Macro Mondays, themed crack, no human parts,
This photo show a very small part of the surface of a leather vaulting buck. The vaulting buck was exposed to the weather, on a balcony and not very well cared for, when I bought it.
Therefore, especially at the edges, the leather has many cracks, and partly broken out of the upper port of the leather. Cracks of different sizes, length, shape and form depending of the usage and the exposure to sun and rain.
As for the size, the longest parts shown are shorter than 60 mmm, to many pictures and no ruler
I haven't posted a bee shot for a few days, so here it is lol. I took this in my FIL's garden when we called in on the way home from Forster, so it is technically part of my little holiday. #349 on Explore 27th February, 2008.

The very pesky teeny weeny white snails are returning to the garden and I caught this one attaching itself to a flowering chive in the herb bed
I took this photo from a big clump of Borage in the lane next to our house. I've tried in the past to photograph it but never succeeded - it can be a tad difficult because of the way the stunning flowers hang but this time I managed to find a way.
"Borage also known as starflower, is an annual herb in the flowering plant family Boraginaceae native to the Mediterranean region."
"Borage flower and leaves are used for fever, cough, and depression. Borage is also used for a hormone problem called adrenal insufficiency, for "blood purification," to increase urine flow, to prevent inflammation of the lungs, as a sedative, and to promote sweating."
It's also very popular with bees which of course is a very good thing indeed 😊
Red garlic, cut in half, there are small cloves, big cloves, cut cloves and closed cloves, a wide selection with a lucky cut.
Actually we went to the local fresh marked, and bough different sorts of onions and similar products all are onion vegetables, and made some pictures.
And today, don’t waste food, onion tart.
While outside in the backyard picking the Chilli Petine peppers off out bush, before the birds eat them all. I noticed the small white chilli petine flower. With my camera at the ready, this image was born. I love the way this awesome capture came out. It is truely amazing how something so simple and small can be so beautiful Some folk's like to pick them when are still green, but I like them when are red.

View Huge on Black and turn off the lights
In Picnik
Crossprocessed blue and red channel,
Vibrance action at 50% to make the little lights, then selective desaturation to the foreground 80% to complete the look. Use the B+W function faded 20% and then erased off the "lights" in the background. Clear as mud eh!
Oh the title is a comment on the contrast between the grasping, rising outer stamens and the cowed bent over central ones. As far as I can make out they are all the same, just their attitude is different.
They can because they think they can...
I was tip toeing amongst the daisies earlier and conjured up this single daisy seemingly towering above the rest
