That first shot is truly amazing. I wasn't sure what is was until I scrolled down some.

Yes indeed it is, a perennial Poppy beloved of Northern European gardeners which you have captured absolutely brilliantly!!!! All my admiration for all three shots.

Så utrolig flotte makrobilder!!

April sa...

So beautiful!

Gunilla sa...

Jättefina bilder. Man ser riktigt hur blomman slår ut. Vallmon är ju en fantastiskt fin blomma. Men man får ha lite uppsikt när fröerna börjar falla.

Ha en fortsatt fin Söndag

Val: Beautiful Poppy, I liked the closed shot with the dew.

Ebie sa...

Val, what great macros, the details, whew!! I have never been up close with the poppy. We have a poppy reserve here, but I missed it. The flower looks so crisp and lovely. One of the best close ups I have seen.

Anne sa...

Noe så utrolig flott, en studie av å komme ut av skallet det der :-)
Virkelig vakkert, og så klåre flote bilder du har fått til så nært!

Jo, teksten ble nå forandret, ble så utrolig usikker her jeg satt, og ordet `pjatt` ble faktisk det enenste jeg så til slutt.
Litt dårlig tilbakemelding, og en blir helt satt ut på en måte..., så jeg mitt naut, forandret.
Tenkt mye i dag ja, men kommet frem til at jeg må gjøre dette på min måte, ønsker ikke at noen skal dirigere meg heller jo...Men allkevel da kjente jeg den litt ekle følelsen i brystet, skitt au!!

Ha en toppers kveld da .-))

Rålekre bilder igjen, Valkyrien!

Det i midten får meg til å tenke at den stygge andungen rekker tunge :-) Du snakker om å gå fra anonym til strålende!

Anne-Berit sa...

Jeg er imponert,dette var bare så flotte macrobilder.
Du er såå flink!

Bim sa...

Yes, a poppy. I love the cutie as much as the beauty...the in-between (whilst shot very nicely) looks a bit like a nasty little alien-insect, though :)

2sweetnsaxy sa...

Almost looking like diamonds on the poppy! :)

Amanda Guthrie sa...

That sure is a poppy and a beauty it is!!

DeniseinVA sa...

Incredible close-ups of a very beautiful poppy. Your photographs are stunning, thank you so much for sharing them.

diane b sa...

First visit and you have fabulous photos on your blog. This poppy macro series is absolutely beautiful. What kind of camera do you use?

msdewberry sa...

Beautiful!! I especially love the water drops. Great photos!

MedaM sa...

WOW...these photos simply took my breath away! What fantastic macro photos you have taken! I am completely impressed!

anne -moseplassen sa...

nydelige valmuebilder, spessielt knoppen :)

Anngående ekornungene så trodde jeg først det var en voksen, men når jeg titta på den så kunne jeg tydlig se forskjell, den er mindre, og mye mer hårete enn sommerpelsen til mammaekornet, og har litt annen ansiktsform. Også bruker den ett minutt på og ete et solsikkefrø, og ikke fem sekunder som en voksen.

Jan K. alias Afanja sa...

That's absolutely a lovely poppy, Valykrien. We've got the same one in our garden, and the first one opened yesterday.

Tulip sa...
