I chose this flower for its mix of colour, & waited for the sun to get lost behind the clouds b4 shooting. Can you see the aphid ? no .. have another look. :o)

Yep, I saw it. Sure is tiny. Very nice macro, and the colors are splendid, old chap. Nice camera work.

Whoooa ! Foofy Phil ! You're suppose to Post Flowers on Foofy Friday. I'll send you a Calendar.
Excellent Capture Buddy.
Color and Clarity are on the MONEY.
Thanks for sharing this Beauty.

Great macro with such pretty colors and I saw the aphid first time around because you insisted he was there. lol The clarity is so good, you can't miss him anyway! :) A pretty spring flower. Someday we'll have flowers too. :(

The aphid escapes me. Old eyes I guess. I do see the beautiful pansy however. Does that count for anything? Good post Phlossie.

Flossy, my man...this is a really superior look at the lowly, but lovely pansy. You made this one as proud as any rose.

Great job, and I picked the aphid off, so no one else is going to be able to see him from here on in...lol...darned bugs.

Interesting catch. A truly beautiful variety of pansy, too. That aphid is so fat. I'm surprised that ants haven't found him to harvest the honey.

I can see the aphid, but I'm glad you pointed it out or I might have missed it. Great color and clarity!
