I'm not really into bugs, which seems to be the primary subject of
most macro photography, but I was out in the garden with my macro setup shooting close-ups of flowers when I noticed this action. I'm not even sure what kind of flowers these are. I think that I planted them as bulbs myself years ago, but they took a few years to get interesting, and by that time I had forgotten what I had put here. The plants are short, only about 6-in or so and they have strap leaves that sort of remind me of a miniature hyacinth. These clusters of flowers are in a loose ball shape. It might be one of the many forms of Allium, but it doesn't have the typical long, thin "onion-like" foliage.

Seems like a wonderful place to visit. |
