Scabiosa anther
Another closeup of a scabiosa flower; there are a few still flowering in the naturalized patch of them I visit:
The colors were wonderful to view. From a standing height, they just look pink. As you get close, the other colors emerge. Not all flowers have the anthers – they may have male and female forms.
Simply just beautiful.
Thanks!
Awesome macro shot!
Thanks for stopping in – the response to this image has been very welcome.
That feeling of outer space again, or things hurtling without
anchor. Though the background on the right is very pleasing too,
it makes an addition, a combination of things, that earth is space,
contains outer space.
Stunning colors and you give us a marvelous range.
The feeling of being “in a space” was one of the things I was after. I was thinking of a forest, but it would have to be an alien one. The colors were what drew me in.
Such a great photo Tom, superb !
Thanks so much Jocelyne!
You are the anther master, Tom. Always hit just the right balance of focus and blur.
BTW, congratulations on the Costa Rica workshop. It should be a great experience.
Steve, thanks for stopping in – I failed to notice you stopped in. Costa Rica is going to be so cool!
I’ve added a link to the workshop on the sidebar.
superb! even the tiny detail is so clear 🙂
Just one or two details are clear, really – thanks Joshi!
Lovely. You are so right about the colors. One of the joys of macro photography is seeing what we would normally miss.
Your photos are absolutely amazing and very beautiful. Following your work from now on.
