  1. Lovely backlight to these. I especially like the middle one, with it crystalising of the petal and the shadows.

    New camera or been working on your technique? Where did you get the subjects - home garden?

  2. Lovely blooms! Makes me think to Spring, Easter, snow melting and new flowers ...

  3. Three views, three winners. Excellent detail in those whites. My favorite is the top one.

  4. Very nice shots ... mine are out at the moment but I haven't done a good job of photographing them yet. Perhaps I should try the type of angle you have used.

  5. Thanks for all the great comments. Alas, I can’t take credit for these photos. Does it count that they were taken on my Olympus? :)

    I have been so busy of late that my darling man offered to take a few shots for me. The pumpkin flower featured in today’ post is also one of his, taken in his garden. Likewise the flowers.

  6. Beautiful macros. Particularly like the 2nd one with the shadows and the unusual angle.

  7. Wow. These are indigenous to South Africa but seem to be really at home in Australia!
