Just some photos I took while out walking. Anything with drops always gets my attention, even though drops aren’t as rare in Illinois as in Arizona.
I like the shape of these berries and the contrast between the dried leaf on the left and the berries.
Milkweed. What’s not to like? They contrast prickly and soft as well as attracting monarch butterflies. But they do reproduce rather quickly so if you have some, you’ll have to keep pulling up the new ones.
This, that and the other thing 
Lovely macros janet 🙂
Thanks, Brian.
Even the small things in nature have their own charm. I love my milkweed when it produces seeds.
I was always happy to see the milkweed seeding. So pretty.
Love that milkweed!
Thanks, Sue.
What a fine selection, Janet – colours, textures, droplets, sun in milkweed. Lovely.
Thanks, Tish. Always good to hear from you.
Beautiful captures of the season. All 3 are wonderful!
Thanks very much, Frank. I’m happy you liked the.
Great macro’s!
Thanks, Aletta.
I love these SO much! I’m all in for macro-anything, but those water droplets on the fallen leaf especially shine. Definitely print worthy.
I enjoy finding and capturing the beauty of the macro which is so often overlooked. Drops only enhance a photo (for the most part.) Happy Tuesday, Hannah.
Every sparkling man made Christmas decoration would have to bow down to natures breathtakingly beautiful creations. Thank you Janet for sharing and reminding us what is important in our world. Cheers Virginia
Fine pictures. I enjoyed the last one in particular.
Thanks! Nature is filled with so many marvelous small things.

I feel rejuvenated just for having looked at your beautiful photographs, Janet!
That makes me happy to read, Dries.
We finally made it through the first 7’s tournament and the Booke did better. This weekend is the next tournament already but we’ll be ready. I bring my flag out to wave when we play. 🙂
We’re holding thumbs that the Bokke can lift their game still more!
well these are rather fabulous
Thanks so much, Becky. I’ve really enjoyed doing squares again.
You’ve caught each of these three subjects beautifully, Janet. I love the milkweed with the sun shining through it.
The milkweed floss is lovely, isn’t it? Glad you liked these, Sue.
These are really amazing captures, Janet 🙂
Thanks so much, Hammad. I’m glad you enjoyed them.
Wonderful image.
I’m happy you like them Anita. The small parts of nature can be so attractive.

Beautiful share, Janet. 🌞
Thanks very much, Lisa. Are you getting rain/snow? We’re getting very welcome rain.
No precipitation yet, but the forecast indicates we’ll have storms today. Unfortunately, our winter has been very warm & dry so far. 😢
I hope you do.
Love natures art and your ability to capture it. Very nice.
