I just got back from jogging through some fields and forests. With that and a couple of cool photos from @old-guy-photos to inspire me I've got a really fun contest for you. Anyone can enter and it's Redfish friendly!
Announcing Micro Magic And The Key to Victory!
While running through the field and going round and around I saw a lot of tiny flowers that I don't think get enough attention. I decided to take some close up shots and then to show you how small they are I put a key in the shot to give them scale!
Here Are My Examples And Then Come The Contest Rules
Such a beautiful flower but when the key is added to the shot you can see just how tiny it is!
This joyful yellow delight was all by itself. Micro Magic indeed!
This is the smallest of my three examples but it is no less gorgeous!
Here Are The Rules!
- There will be at least 5 prizes of 1 Steem each.
- The contest closes after 7 days when the post pays out.
- 1 entry per member.
- There must be two photos. One showing the beauty of the flower and one with a key to give it scale!
- Your entries must be included in the comments for this post. Please feel feel to make your own post as well and I will try and upvote it!
Here's One Last Inspiration From @old-guy-photos!
I took my photos with my phone but just to show you that the possibilities are endless take a look at these photos from @old-guy-photos that he entered in my previous contest: The Old Dog Presents: Reaping What You Did Not Sow Round Five Winners!
As Always I Look Forward to Your Entries!

here is my entry for the contest
Thanks a lot for your entry!
How do I know that's not a giant key? This is crypto. Hard to trust anybody LoL
you won't!
it's photoshop magic ^ ^
Actually that has crossed my mind about the entries that may come in! I am a trusting soul though!
World's largest key:
Kinda throws the scale thingy out the window! :(
Didn't a doctor ever say to you "This is only going to sting a little bit" before jabbing you with some humongous needle?
Always.
Wow, so huge... where is this?
http://www.worldrecordacademy.com/biggest/largest_key_Qatar_breaks_Guinness_World_Records_record_216227.html
So it's in Doha, and it's dedicated to refugees around the world... not much to do with crypto, hehe.
No. It's to do with that key could make an awfully huge flower look tiny beside it. Perspective.
I think the key is blocking the flower... I can't see it from this angle.
Get your head on straight :-)
lol as i was reading it i was thinking what's the biggest key i have:)
Thanks for the contest! I decided to do a post to hopefully draw some more attention to it too!
Great entry thanks a lot!
Thanks for the spotlight Old Dog! Always a pleasure and an honor to be mentioned. I do love macro work. Showing the key for scale was a great idea and really brought the size home to my mind!
Thanks for your great support!
I am not going to enter this contest for lack of any flowers. However, I still wanted to promote it. :)

This is a fun contest. I find all kinds of small things growing. Right now, I have my eyes peered for little garden seedlings I planted. The carrots and tobacco are some of the smallest ones to look out for. They stay super small for a few weeks.
Thanks for entering. Well done!
This is my participation in the contest, I like that we are making new pictures and we don't use the archive.

Thanks @kus-knee If you want to see more of my macrophotography, visit my page ... Because every day I just make a post macrophotography.
Here's mine!
These were a little difficult to capture because they're on a shrub, and as soon as I tried to take pictures, a breeze kicked up and kept moving the branches. They're the smallest flowers I can find right now, though!
Very well done. Thanks!
Key and finger.
Harder to cheat, hehe.
Good idea!
Very good thanks!

It looks like you found something really nice. Please make sure to put the two photos in the comments here as well.
Remarkably beautiful photography. The key(I smell a pun) would be if we had flowers blooming. Perhaps in a month or so. Thanks my dear friend @kus-knee.
I say stop in at the local florist and photo some Baby's Breath.
Grab a shovel and go flower hunting!

These little clusters of tiny little yellow flowers are growing on the rooftop of my apartment and i have seen them in red , orange and white also i really don't know the name of this tiny little flowers but they do have a lovely fragrance and are cute looking :)
Very good!
Thank you @kus-knee :)
I have been looking for some sort of flower small enough to make it look really tiny against the key it has been quite a mission actually but i did find one and it was hard to photograph battling against the wind constantly blowing the little flower around and trying to do the selfie on the flower trying to keep a steady hand on the mobile phone and pulling the trigger and holding the key at the same time proved a task also but i managed the mission successfully i did find my cute little miniature daisy flower and here it is :)))))))

Thank you for the new competition. I think there will be many who want to participate
I hope so!
This contest comes a bit early for me. Still a little snow on the ground. :-)
Sorry to read that. I used to live in Canada so I know the feeling.
@kus-knee I think you should shoot a key you do not use anymore, because someone can make a duplicate. 😊
Yes perhaps!
Nice contest. I have the key but what is left is the flower
You’ll find one!
Thanks for this contest. I am more than happy to participate.

Have fun :)...
That’s great but you need two photos, one without the key and then one with it to show the size.
You can just do an edit like this.
Great!
