Flower closeups

Lord Vetinari

Some more 10x shots using a 10X microscope objective. #1 is a heather flower, the others are an hibiscus pollen anther. All focus stacked with zerene stacker apart from the last shot which shows what the DOF is like. The hibiscus pollen is about 0.15mm in diameter which makes the DOF in the last shot about 0.075mm.

Thanks for sharing - I did NOT know hibiscus pollen grains looked like that!

I think the first shot is exceptional, especially the colouring, shading and the background too.
