Deranged Photography Contest - Macro

[keithboone]

You can expect to see a lot of Bugs & Flowers in a macro contest.

My entry won't be all that different...

Olympus E-M1 Mk ii, 60mm, 1/100, f/2.8, ISO 6400

I found a tiny wild flower in the yard and brought it inside. I gave it a little squirt of water from a spray bottle and dropped it on my wife's iPad to provide a reflection. It was only after I saw the photo on a computer screen that I noticed the aphid. There are actually two aphids in the photo and at least one more hiding in the background blur.

(My wife wanted to know where the aphids went and I claimed to have taken them outside...)

This is my entry for the Pro tier of the contest.

To round out the post I am including a couple more recent macro shots of timy flowers.

All photos were taken by me, @keithboone

Thank you... my stuff does not really belong in the Pro tier but I like to compete at the highest level and sometimes I do well which is fun.
