    Macro photography of window sill succulents

    My wife Anne’s Instagram picture of her little flower grouping this morning, got me inspired to take a few macro shots of those new flowers that she noticed on her window sill succulents. Until I went out and had a look, I did not realize how small the flowers are. They are no more than 1/4...
