Spring blues

#bloomscrolling #flowers #blue #crocus #spring #macro #photography

Macro photograph of a purple blue crocus flower, its six petals just starting to open, revealing the bright orange stamens and pistil still hugging close together. Shallow depth of field is used to create abstract patterns in blue, green and brown in the background, giving the impression that the flower is floating in a colourful ether.

Crocus

For his love of Smilax, unhappy Crocus was transformed into a flower.

Sweet dreams !

Friday promises

My green lemon tree has been my companion all winter, close to my desk and window. It is now full of flowers, bathing in the sun, and I even see tiny green lemons for the first time. It is very heartwarming, especially with snow on the ground when I look outside.

Enjoy your day!

Macro photograph of a very small green lemon white flower, with five petals and yellowish pistil surrounded by a crown of stamens. Lush green leaves surround the sunlit flower.

Double stars

Squills (Scilla sp.)

#macro #monochrome #blackandwhite #bloomscrolling #flowers #photography

Macro photograph in black and white of two open squill flowers. The one on the left is in focus and slightly forward. The one on the right is behind and not in focus. The flowers have six petals and the pistils and stamens are closed together in the centre. The background is dark, as all the light is put on the pale flowers by enhancing light and contrast.

Cold jewel

#macro #abstract #frost #heart #monochrome #blackandwhite #photography

Macro and monochrome photograph of silver frost on a window, with a dark background. The frost looks like silver or crystal, with a metallic shine, like a jewel. I have no idea how but the frost evolved into the shape of a heart at its centre, and all kinds of lines, flowers, and feathers appeared all around it. It makes a poor description, I know. But imagine a silver pendant representing a heart in the centre of an intricate work of art from a talented artist. Only it's nature made.

Flower no 1

My orchid did me the honour of growing a flowering stem with eight buds this winter. First one finally opened today.

#macro #flowers #bloomscrolling #orchid #photography

Macro photograph of the centre of a white orchid flower, with yellow coloration at the base of the petals and on reproductive parts, and red dots and lines around them.

The intricacies of an orchid flower make it quite difficult for macro photography, as nothing is really flat and you need to be very accurate on the exact spot you want in focus.

Macro photograph of a white orchid flower, showing the labellum (a modified petal) from under, with its two curved yellow "antennas" on each side. Blurred behind the rest of the flower can be seen, with some red in the centre.

Surface of an icicle, aka " i c e "

#macro #monochrome #spring #glace #eis #abstract #photography

Macro photograph of the surface of an icicle, frozen again overnight. A thin film of water was forming a relief of air bubbles and lines the day before, over thicker i c e.

I c e is my favourite photo subject. I feel like I cannot use this word and hashtag without being filtered.

Magic

#macro #monochrome #blackandwhite #noiretblanc #spring #water #abstract #photography

Macro black and white photograph of drops of water falling between tree roots, sparkling in the sunlight.

With trees growing on the side of a hill, there is often a space created just under their base on the lower side, where their roots are showing and hanging in the air, especially in Spring with erosion and the low vegetation not grown yet. The water coming down the hills from the melting snow finds its way to these spaces, and follows the roots to fall magically like rain in the sun. It's the merry sound it makes that drew me there, with my rain boots filled with snow and water falling on my head, crouched uncomfortably once again under a tree.

This beautiful peach quince flower only produces a tiny fruit, but due to its color, it is one of my favorites.

Macro photograph in black and white of a coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara) flower bud, all its petals still tightly closed together, reproducing a flower shape. White cottony hair protecting the inside of the tepals can be seen stretching out like spider web around the bud with the opening process. The rest of vegetation is blurred in the background.
