Close-up of a common weed

G'day,

Well, until I pick my car up next week, I'm bored stupid sitting at home... So while watching the cricket boredom got the better of me...

Had a quick play with a common weed from the backyard, in amongst the clover...

I'm always amazed as to what common little things look like in close-up :shock:

Propped up on the dining table :)

a different view of something common.
I am amazed at how different things look like in close up also.

want to get some extension tubes to push the envelope beyond my 105 micro.

I'm not known for my love of flower photos, but this one works for me.

Love the almost-but-not-quite symmetry you've got going there, and pretty good lighting.

Maybe lighten the middle of the flower a little? And throw a little light on the background to give a smidge more texture? Personal opinion only...

Congrats
