This is just for fun. :wink: I don't know what kind of plant this is, but it's growing in front of my house and it has to be the tiniest flower that I've ever seen. It doesn't look like it gets much bigger than this. There are bound to be many of you who know much more about botany than I do, however.

The detail image had my 105mm Macro maxxed out. The yellow part of the flower is less than 0.5mm in size. The green bud is about 5mm.

Steve, this is great.

Sort of like a shot you would see in a science book or something like that. I think it's cool if you are trying to emphasize a certain part of the plant.

Keep it up. ( The camera that is )

Mic. :wink:

Or it can just walk back by itself...


Great shot Steve, love the idea of the detail insert, works very well.
