Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 - Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

  1. I'd love to know your aperture...I can't decide if I should be shooting wide open or not. I'm going to look now for a macro to enter.

  7. The tulips are so pretty, Lisa. I can still find fresh tulips here in the florists, they are imported from Holland. Due to our hot climate, the tulips can't be grown here unless in a glasshouse environment.

  28. Lovely, as always. The first photo is my favorite. The third one has a fierce look to it.

  29. Shallow depth of field in macro photographs has the potential to produce stunning results - as you have done in these pictures. thank you for sharing them with us. And what happened to "missing"? When I click on that post, it's really MISSING!

    And I would paint it a deep candy apple red - the white racing stripe would be the perfect adjunct.
