145. Extreme Close Up

The flowers in Colorado were just beautiful!  Don’t ask me what kind of flower this is….I don’t have a clue, but wow, was the center of the flower gorgeous!

  1. Very beautiful Tammy! Love the softness but yet it looks like it could be a little prickely as well.

  2. This is a fabulous macro shot!! So much detail and even a drop of water.

  3. That seems a bit reminiscent of the Passionfruit flower a little,

  4. Looks like a poppy to me…pretty sure. Regardless, nice shot.

  5. Not able to identify it but it’s like a burst of sunlight! Very pretty. The center shape reminds me of a barrel cactus, only with a fuzzy top. Great detail, shadows, and even a drop of water!

    Thanks for your visit and comment on my Macro Monday photo. =)

  6. Nice details and light!

  7. The shadows within are wonderful!
    The center reminds me of a poppy.

  8. Nice – the shadows add to the interest, don’t they?

  9. Beautiful close-up

  10. Pretty….I bet with all the rains they’ve been having in the 4 corners area of the states this past month, the flowers in the deserts and mountains of Colorado are stupendous.

    My Macro is Nautical And I also added a bit about a new meme I’m inviting everyone; if you’d like to join in on the challenge. Come over and find out what day on which it will take place….join me?

    Hope your Monday is treating you well.
