Welcome/Willkommen!

Hello and welcome. Hope you enjoy the images I have posted. Please do not reproduce them without my permission. Most are available as note/greeting cards or as prints/enlargements. Thank you for visiting my site and your comments.
Many have asked about the Header image above, which I named 'Eerie Genny'. It was originally shot with film [taken on the shore of the Genesee River near the Univ. of Rochester]. During the darkroom development, I flashed a light above the tray. The process, known as 'solarization', produces eerie, ghostlike effects; some have mistaken this image as an infra-red photo. Some 35+ years later, I scanned and digitized the print, and did a little modern day editing, and, voila.

Yellow [Sunday Stills & Macro-Flowers Saturday]


This pic serves as a 'two-fer' in two different postings-- I did not really clean this macro up much -- getting lazy in my old age.  For you animal lovers, I did no harm to the bee.

What a beautiful bloom, the honey bee is certainly enjoying herself. Great macro shot.

Humor...ha ha...You'd never hurt that bee. Nice shot, this two-fer. I'm doing flowers too.

Nancy said...

Love the delicate edges of the petals -- very nice shot Stan. Glad the bee was not harmed. ;)

Wow.
Stand back, Georgia O'Keeffe!

Nice shot and great macro..:-)

Gorgeous macro and flower.
Thank you Stan for your lovely comments and thanks to your wife for identifying my flower. It is indeed a diablo flower.

Still, you have to link back to Macro Flowers Saturday if you want to participate. From last week's experience you don't want to do that, so please, make up your mind!

Well done! Look at all the yellow pollen on the bee.

Brenda said...

I don't think it needs to be cleaned up. I like it how it is!
