What an interesting, original, image Lyn. It could serve as the inspiration for a stained glass window! Very nicely captured.

Impressive macro there, Lyn. He was drunk from all that heady stuff, I suppose :) Great post.

Yes, stained glass was the first thing that came to mind. What a novel find and a great presentation. Lovely work on this beautiful creature.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Dynamic details on the inner workings!! I like the frame works, perhaps not for this piece though as the framing distracts somewhat from the main focal point. That's just me though. Marvelific lighting and intense feelings exude on the inner beauty!!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round?? Picture Purrrfect .

Definitely stained glass material, and I can't believe you actually found a bee asleep on the job. I bet that doesn't happen very often...or did you put a wee drop into this hyacinth? No matter. It turned out great!

Great looking wing Eve, although I personally prefer drumsticks! =P Seriously though, what a fantastic macro. You can see every little detail. =)
