Hi William,
So fragile and so beautiful! This is a wonderful image!
There are so many fine details to absorb, one could spend quite a bit of time mesmerized!

Perhaps sights such as this inspired the first makers of lace.

William,

This is a wonderful find and a great capture. Kudos!

well done, William - one can see the intricate geometry (forgive the math teacher in me) and delicate nature of this close up structure

Hello Janet,

I hope you have been well and thank you for the wax of adjectives. The photo is buffed and shiny after your comments.

Hello Sir,

In the morning sun, a garden of mirco-prisms, if you will, twinkled from what appeared to be dew soaked dandelions. That fairy play of light gave me the clue that the drops were large and could be lens worthy. Alas, the angle to get what you see here was the result of the unavailability of the colorful diffraction at so close a range. (That or the light shifted in cloud play.) I essentially, then, took what I could get and it turned out not to be a bad consolation prize. Thanks John, for stopping by.

Thank you very much for the inspired comments. I'm into firsts. I think a shot needs to feel as if it is yours as in the first human taking the first shot on Earth. Isn't that both freeing and full of responsibility?

Mr. Igoe,


Could there be anything to forgive? Part of this photo's attraction is its restating that reality tends to favor certain shapes so is it not a microcosm then, the proverbial 'To see the world in a grain of sand' spoken on a more universal level? Indeed, I think a geometrical sense is important in order to ponder the why's of our universe's choice of circular (the sphere being a three dimensional one) as a dominate shape and force. Indeed cube shaped planets and cubed shape suns could have cubic orbits if the universe had so desired...ha, now my turn to ask your pardon for such enduring and unanswerable meanderings...thank you for your analytical appreciation.

Thanks, Mike. It's Nature's champagne on a stick. *grins*

Great macro image, William. Such crystalised and intricate beauty, nice one.
