Macro photo taken on my way to work, on a frosty day. The ground was beautiful because it had a slight layer of frost on it. I shot a flower standing out, backlight with the morning light.
In terms of post-processing, I used darktable to pull the highlights toward blue and the shadows to yellow. I also added some local contrast enhancement and edited the curves. I saved several versions of the reconstructed photo with different amount of local contrast enhancement and more or less dark curves. Then, in the Gimp, I overlayed the different versions with layer masks. I segmented the flower to use a versus with a strong local contrast enhancement. For the distant background, I use a version with little local contrast enhancement. In the foreground, at the bottom of the image, I use a strong local contrast enhancement, and curve editing that makes shadows darker.
The bokeh is natural this time, as a I have a new camera with a faster lens.
The morning dew on these purple eye catching wildflowers with their blue anthers are a Texas beauty.
Tiny little box turtle found by one of the ironworks fellow who was putting our big gates up. She is no larger than a silver dollar! Agatha- for Dame Agatha Christie :)
I noticed this extremely tiny, maybe 1/16th inch or 2 mm, Orb-Weaver spider in the begonias. Almost couldn't see it. I became intent, ok, obsessed :-), with getting a few photos of it. People walking by couldn't figure out what I was taking a photo of. :) Sorry for so many, most of which are not in sharp focus due to it move quickly and my leaning over trying to handheld my macro lens, but had to try. The bright morning sun blew out some of its fine details.
Sorry for so many photos again. All from the same morning walk yesterday. Saving since very cloudy today with chances of severe storms tonight and Sunday. No need to comment. :)
(Paphiopedilum micranthum) Native to certain areas of the Chinese Himalayas, this critically endangered species was not even discovered until the 1980s.
Macro photography workshop, Orchid House, San Diego Zoo
Many orchids are endangered, mostly due to habitat destruction and over-collection. The IUCN has assessed 880 species of orchids, and categorizes more than 500 of them as Vulnerable or Endangered—and of those, 162 are Critically Endangered. All orchids are protected by CITES. It is illegal, whether for profit or pleasure, knowingly or unknowingly, to transport orchids across international borders without the proper paperwork.
San Diego Zoo Global assists in the conservation of orchids. The San Diego Zoo is a Designated Plant Rescue Center. The Orchid House, with more than 900 orchid taxa, provides an appropriate environment for plants that have been confiscated from the illegal orchid trade. Zoo horticulturists grow, propagate, and share orchids with other botanical gardens.
Virginia buttonweed: a tiny, white wildflower, as cute as, well, a button!
DeKalb County (Avondale Estates), Georgia, USA.
8 June 2024.
***************
▶ "Diodia virginiana — commonly known as Virginia buttonweed — is a plant species in the bedstraw family Rubiaceae, native to south-central and southeastern United States (and Mexico, Nicaragua, and Cuba). It can be found in swamps, wet meadows, marshes, coastal prairies, and in the mud along streams and ponds.
Virginia buttonweed is a branching, sprawling plant with small white star-shaped flowers (⅕ inch or 5 mm) of 4 petals apiece, that blooms in summer and fall. The leaves are often mottled because of a virus that attacks the foliage. The plant has thick roots by which it can spread vegetatively, thus it often shows up as a weed in lawns and other disturbed areas."

▶ Photographer's note:
It's a closeup. The tiny flower appears much larger in this image than it did in 'real' life. Just don't call it a weed!

This tiny forest of assorted mosses has grown in a plant pot left over from last year. There are some tiny coriander leaves in the middle which was the pots original inhabitant
Un minuscule champignon qui ne pousse que sur les feuilles mortes. / A tiny mushroom that grows only on dead leaves.
If anyone can get these bottle caps off, it’s bound to be this little guy! LOL! Taken for the Jules’ Photo Challenge Group: tiny Guess I did speak too soon- I am back standing in one spot to even get a cell signal. Not internet working here again. 😞
A quite tiny Leek Orchid and difficult to spot. I wouldn't have found this one had I not been on my hands and knees photographing another.Fairly common and widespread from Shark Bay in the north to Eyre on the Great Australian Bight. This one near Jerramungup in the wheatbelt.
Tiny Bee.
This bee was less than a quarter of an inch long, but I have read that very small bees are the most important indigenous pollinators in North America.

A tie pin in the shape of a drop of blood, received after donating blood several times. No larger than 1 cm
Found this tiny and delicate mushroom by the pond. I like to look for small mushrooms like this, you can easily miss them!
Have a wonderful Sunday friends!
Two tiny moons of Saturn, almost lost amid the planet's enormous rings, are seen orbiting in this image. Pan, visible within the Encke Gap near lower-right, is in the process of overtaking the slower Atlas, visible at upper-left.
All orbiting bodies, large and small, follow the same basic rules. In this case, Pan (17 miles or 28 kilometers across) orbits closer to Saturn than Atlas (19 miles or 30 kilometers across). According to the rules of planetary motion deduced by Johannes Kepler over 400 years ago, Pan orbits the planet faster than Atlas does.
This view looks toward the sunlit side of the rings from about 39 degrees above the ring plane. The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on July 9, 2016.
The view was acquired at a distance of approximately 3.4 million miles (5.5 million kilometers) from Atlas and at a Sun-Atlas-spacecraft, or phase, angle of 71 degrees. Image scale is 21 miles (33 kilometers) per pixel.
The Cassini mission is a cooperative project of NASA, ESA (the European Space Agency) and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging operations center is based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

I was in process of taking pictures of a patch of eggs I found must have been over a thousand of them on a iris leaf, each egg about .5 mm across so tiny, I let them sit for awhile then went back to try some more egg pictures and they had hatched!
7:1 on m43, 200 f4 Micro with 28 mm ais reversed on lens, field of view 2.7 mm across.
Not the greatest picture but they were moving and they are small, look at the eggs, .5 mm across so that makes the worms just over a mm long.
Hold me closer tiny mammoth…
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today...
These tiny but swiftly-moving Clearwing Hummingbird Moths are just about the size of bumblebees...and they flit from blossom to blossom...
...much in the same manner as hummingbirds. Probably no coincidence there, Always an adventure trying to get the lens on the moth before it is already elsewhere.
