About A super close MACRO of the Stamen only of a hibiscus bloom . . . coated in pollen . . . and sent well past the inside pistils in search of bees, etc. for cross pollination. The creative flower is the flower more than my way of showing it . . . the creative part is how they can reproduce (with help) in this fashion! I used 60mm extension tubes to severly restrict the DOF and (naturally) a tripod - Hmmmmmm . . . flowers MAY be prettier . . . but they DON'T have as much fun!! Heheheheee.

Well thank you Emgy . . . I'm guessing the colors . . . for some reason, they remind me of you . . . perhaps something in your earlier work makes me think that. Anyway . . . I appreciate the comments.

Regards,

Wow James . . . you DO get around! I just KNEW you were gonna bring up the Adromeda aliens and I was ready for it. I completely spaced out on the Diphdalions. Good call. I concede! :)

James Cook James Cook   {K:38068} 9/13/2006
Oh, my friend, I must concede that aliens from Betelgeuse as well as those from the region surrounding Alpha Centauri do have blue tongues. However, the slender frog people from the misty world circling the distant star Diphda do have green tongues.

Doyle D. Chastain Doyle D. Chastain   {K:101119} 9/13/2006
Yeah right, James. Alien tongues are blue!

:P

Hehehehee . . . but thinks for the mental picture and the comment anyway!! Hehehehee.

Thanks VERY much Susan . . . I thought this would be something of little or NO interest since there was such a minimal depth and little subject material......guess I was wrong . . . it seems to be attracting views even if it is such a small thing!! :) Thanks for the comments!

Doyle I <~~~~~

There ain't much you can't do Doyle! This is so close and so clear. And you make it so warm with the colours.
