It’s Macro Mondays! I threw in the dew drops just for fun. I found those all the way down by the roots of the grass in our yard.
Good work on yesterday’s guessing game. It was, indeed, the place where the handle bars attach to my sons’ trike.
I’m running late. I’m taking pictures of the new baby my friend had a few weeks ago. Wish me luck. This is my gift to her.

Sweet pics.
Good luck today!
Love the dew drops! That's my fave! I'm sitting here saying, "WOW!"
The dewdrops are great. Are they on a spidersweb or something because they look suspended in mid-air? They are so sharp, at the start I thought they were on your lens!
last photo is a very nice macro...
Pretty colors, and the defocusing of the bottom you have had left very well.
Yes, the dew drop are quite something! Great catch! But I also love the flower shots!
Great macros Micki. This is something I want to explore but have not yet.
Nice water drops.
I'm still trying to figure out the dew drops. Were they on your lens? Looks like they're just hovering there.
I love this macro : the detail : the coliurs : the contrast : all wonderful shots.GREAT GREAT SHOTS!
I like the dewdrops also! Spiderweb??
Early morning shots? Nice colours.
Usually I don't make a second comment, but here goes it:
I had been using a rice bag to balance the camera on to shoot little bitty, teeny tiney flowers in the grass. I noticed the rice bag had sprung a leak. While looking at all the rice in the grass, I noticed way down deep in the grass a tiny little web of some sort with all the night's moisture still on it. No drops on the lens. I had to take two of the extension tubes off to get this shot. I wanted to get closer with more extension tubes on the lens, but by then the lens was shading the drops.
Good composition on the macros. The dew drops do take the cake; the illusion that they're suspended in mid-air catches the eyes.
Lovely macro and good deep colors.
Wonderful!! Lovely purple...:)
GOOD LUCK!!!! lovely serie!!! i love the 3 of them!!! but if i need to pick one, then i should have a problem!!, my favorites are the 2 last ones!!! great shots!!!
The other two are nice, but Dew Drops is definitely the best picture here. Just lovely!
Nice dew drops:). A nice discovery.
nice detail and dof...also lovely color...last shot is kinda cool..love the water drops:-)
LOVE the water droplets shot...amazing Micki!!!
The photo of the water drops is definitely my favorite here. Very "springy".
love the bottom image Micki! the water drops look cool! cheers :)
Fresh shot; lovely dedicate
Love the dew drops. Beautiful! I wish spring was here.
lovely set! like the dew drops very much!
The dew drop image is stunning in the large size - the drops look like they're just hovering, since the web is so fine and nearly invisible. An array of tiny lenses set before your own lens :-)
The water drops really make this photo.
Love taking baby photos.
Ah! Great macros! Well done .)
