Shot with my 5d (classic) paired with the old non-is/non-usm 100mm macro.

Best watched on a wide gamut screen.

Here's one I did this weekend - a little critter got a grain of pollen stuck on its antenna. The flower was fairly small, maybe 3 cm tip to tip, and the insect was about 4 mm long.

Southern Slender Ladies' Tresses (Spiranthes gracilis). I didn't measure them, but the blossom openings are 2-3mm across.

The contrast and texture are very pleasing. What size is the burdock bud?

 

[varoonprasad]

The bud is little over an inch.
My photography friend plucked it to be convenient for his shots. The first picture was taken by keeping the dead bud upside down.

I took this blossom at the onset of spring. Canon 7D mark ii + 100m macro non-L

Lovely shot, chrysoberyl.
