Cyperus papyrus (papyrus,[1]papyrus sedge, paper reed, Indian matting plant, Nile grass) is a species of aquatic flowering plant belonging to the sedge family Cyperaceae. It is a tender herbaceous perennial, native to Africa, and forms tall stands of reed-like swamp vegetation in shallow water.
Vor dem richtigen Hintergrund können auch unscheinbare Blüten schön wirken. Weiß ist die Summe allen Lichts.

A rare "close-up" photograph of one of the many solar flares on Papyrus, the sun of the Charta-spissa solar system. "Close-up" in this planetary context means that it was taken at a distance of 2:1 million kilometers from Papyrus. The photographic material was commissioned by me and provided by Roby, intergalactic traveller, cake lover, and UFO sightings creator, or should I say perpetrator (whenever she is visiting our solar system she simply can't resist causing some UFO sightings for the records). Some of you might remember Roby, and for more info on her, please see the first comment.
Solar flares on a star like Papyrus might sound like a contradiction – given the material this star and all the planets of Charta-spissa consist of – but, in reality, are not. Due to Papyrus' specific surface properties, its flares are extremely long-lasting, slow, and cold. To the untrained eye, they might even appear permanent. So Roby had all the time in the world to choose the prettiest of the many Papyrus flares and properly set my (I lent it to her) camera and extreme zoom lens ("Why can't I shoot in "P" mode, Silke?" "Because "P" mode is boring, Roby." "But your camera is sooo complicated!" "When you come back, you get an extra Pastel de Nata with lots of Dulce de Leche on top for your efforts, Roby, I promise.").
As for Papyrus' surface properties: This is one of the cardboard "reflectors" I use to help illuminate my macro photos. This one is small and round, and it was part of a small chocolate cardboard box I once got as a present. The, rather thin (1 mm / 0,039 inches), cardboard is laminated on both sides (gold and silver, I believe it's thin foil that is used for lamination), just like cake (or fish packaging) board. I used the gold-coated side which I "coloured" red with the help of the translucent red plastic chocolate box lid and an LED lamp. I also used my small LED Lenser flashlight (set on spotlight), handheld from the right, which created/brought out the web-like golden pattern.
Now I was a little unsure if it still counts as "Paper" if it's laminated (although technically, it still is because it's the main material), but the part in focus, the "flares", are pure paper: two small frays on the cardboard's edge that slightly protrude from it. So I think (hope) my photo is within the theme's requirements. The bigger of the two "flares" is 2 mm / 0,078 inches long. It's a single shot taken with the Laowa Ultra Macro lens at a little less than 2:1 magnification.
I'll catch up with you later.
HMM, Everyone!

Roma Street Parkland isn't just about flowers, it's the green foliage as well, so well aligned and presented beautifully. In this instance, taking in the lovely Winter sunshine on the edge of the large parkland pond.
The Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is supposed to expose visitors to interesting things, including experiences they may not have had before. This plant is papyrus, the plant that Egyptians used to make paper, and for which "paper" is named.
Thanks for looking! Isn't God a great artist?

Chiudendo il diaframma dell'obbiettivo, il sole si trasforma in una magnifica stella con i raggi.
Gli steli di papiro sembrano innalzarsi verso il cielo, grazie alla prospettiva del grandangolo.
Buona giornata
