Mic drop
Stayed in yesterday trying to get sorted for our hols. Weather seemed quite nice and there was some lovely light in the garden, so took a break and had a mini shoot. Today is miserable, grim and very wet. Typical British weather then! Must remember to take the brollies to Whitby 😂😍
Hope some of you are enjoying some sunny weather, lots of love ❤️
The Looking Close on Friday's theme is "texture in flora".
There are 4 possibilities. I'm leaning toward this one bc it's up very close, colorful, and the dewdrops add interest :)

This captivating close-up photograph features a lively insect perched on a blurred background. The insect, with its vibrant colors and animated posture, appears poised to leap into action. The foreground is beautifully captured in sharp detail, allowing for a clear view of the insect's intricate features and delicate movements. The monochromatic black and white backdrop creates a striking contrast, enhancing the insect's visual impact and making it the focal point of the composition.
For me it is fascinating how orchids can present themselves to be attractive for their pollinators.

This image of the center of a chicory flower reminded me of some of the graphics I've seen of a nuclear fusion reactor, like this one:
