Up close...
Looking through a window? Raindrops?
Actually, the spider web caught the water on this rex begonia leaf.
Is this a worm on a plant?
A painting?
Actually, this is a closeup of a pitcher plant (Nepenthes burkei).
Is this a hairy plant? Up close to a kangaroo baby?
Actually, this is a fern frond beginning to unfurl.
Is this a rose blossom? Dahlia?
Actually this is a cactus blossom. Would you ever dream this pretty flower would come out of the prickly cactus?
Have a Happy Friday... and look up close once in a while!
Beautiful images. It's so funny how close up images give you a totally different look.
ReplyDeleteHi Annie,
ReplyDeleteThe picture of the spider web and the water is so pretty. I love ferns, but don't like how they look before he leaves open completely, kind of hairy; the flowers of the prickly cactus are very pretty, I have eaten prickly pear cheese which is the fruit of the prickly cactus and the cheese that is made out of the fruit is delicious.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Oh my goodness. Mother Nature is the best artist, hands down.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images, you are so good behind the lense of a camera. That first and second images are truly remarkable...they are artwork! It is a good reminder to slow down and enjoy.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness - These images are just wonderful and stunning!
ReplyDeleteIt proofs again - real beauty is in the nature!
