Chris from South Jersey, United States
very nicely done - I think I would have shown them seperately as each is wonderful by itself......beautiful colors and details....

@Chris: Thanks, Chris ... I was going to show them separately, but I have too many othes in the queue, so I doubled them up. :D
Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States
Amazing detail on your macro, Judy. There must have been no wind at all, or breeze or anything. Such clarity.

@Viewfinder: Thank you, Glenn. The flowers were on the porch so if there was any breeze, it was muted by the screening.

Barbara from Florida, United States
Beautiful! The selective focus really gives the details of the pollen. Great light and freshness to both images. I like the splash of pollen on the top image.
Very nice macro.
