Friday the 13th . . .

Good day , another rainy day here in Holland .

The dafodills on the balcony are sooking wet from the rain but they still look very nice , the crocuses how ever are done with flowering no more flowers from them this year.

Yesterday i received confirmation that on april 9th i will be changing ISP and finally get a static IP adress here IPv4 and IPv6 , so if you see my witness down in April for a short period that is the reason , but it will be back !

To avoid that the cat keeps chewing on my indoor plants we bought some fresh grass plants , usually she loves to chew on my papyrus plant and now she has her own fresh grass plants again .

1 )Jinx happy chewing on the fresh grass

2 )the dafodills tet a tet on the balcony coverd with raindrops

3 ) seeing those drops just makes you want to get closer for more details

4 ) ok get back inside and find your ultra macro lens

5 )and there it is more details :)

6 )with the 2.5 magnification you can even see the cell structure

7 )or use tiny raindrops as a lens to make abstract photography

8 ) even with the narrow DOF [ depth of field ] most of the drops are good visible

9 )While i was trying to peek inside the dafodill flower for stamen and pollen , i spotted this little acrobat .

10 )looks lik it was searching for fame posing for the camera like that. I still have no idea what it is or should become.

11 ) back to the raindrops on the flowers

12 )raindrops on the dafodills petal

13 )and the last one for today , the dafodill sticking out its tongue .
