Tiny Reflections

a different view

Looking at something from a new angle can share the hidden parts you, knew were there but, couldn't imagine.  Often the important stuff is hard to get to, or covered up with fluff that distracts us.  But if we ignore the stem of the blossom, the flower will die.  A person's core, inner workings, are hidden deeper than that stem, but just as important.

Macro Monday Episode 99

I am really trying to soak up all the joy in flowers before the snow starts to fly again, and trust me it will seem way too soon for that blanket of white.

With all the rain we've had this summer, if it were colder we would be buried, lol.

Next week, Monday August 23, will be the 100th Macro Monday post and I thought it might be fun to see if we could get 100 objects in the post. Granted they would have to be small objects to still be close but I'll be giving it a shot and thought you might want to too. If you prefer not to, that's ok. :0)

Update:  There's been some question about the 100 thing, I wasn't thinking 100 images, I was thinking 100 objects in one photo.  Make sense?  100 photos might be a wee bit overwhelming, lol.

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 Mr Linky. MM started on Sept 29, 2008 - Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week! :)

Macro Monday ~ The Feather

A feather in the grass while the rain was gently falling offered itself for examination.

I found it amazing how the droplets sat upon the feather!

And I wondered what was in the water?

A small pocket (flaw?) along the edge of the feather clung to a drip. The things I see in the rain drops, are they from the rain itself, or something that was on the feather?

Check out how round some of those droplets are! I guess a feather does not absorb anything, and I'm thinking whatever coats feathers should coat our cars and rain gear.
