Passionate about Gardens and Flower Photography
(click to enlarge to full size)
I found this tiny decaying flower / petal whilst tidying up the pots at the weekend. Only 0.5cm diameter it is tiny. As it was a windy day I brought it inside and placed it on a black cloth to photograph.
I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling. View more posts

Ahh, I thought it was the same as my last skeleton flower, but I don’t have a hydrangea. It’s beautiful Jude, I really love these tiny remains and always keep my eyes open for them. My own favourite is still the tomatillo casing last year, which is now framed.
Perhaps yours blew in from elsewhere.
Jude at first glance I thought I was looking at sculptures. Very creative approach.
it would make a lovely silver pendant or brooch. Would need to be bigger than it was though as this was tiny.
Ooh I love it 😀
Took my time with this one – thank you Sarah 🙂
Worth it 😀
Taken as a macro it looks larger than life and is so intricate. You have got the focus spot on.
That’s what I do like about this lens. The magnification. I turned the ‘flower’ around to alter the focus point. I like the first one (after the header) best.
Beautiful, Jude. Nice work.
Beautiful captures!
Thanks Janaline.
Oh, my. Such delicate and intricate beauty, Jude. Well done.
Thank you Jane 🙂
I had the impression I was looking at filigree jewelry (American spelling).
It is rather charming 😉
