I Heart Macro - Hipstamatic Zinnea

Welcome to my weekly post to contribute to this weeks "I Heart Macro"
Hosted by Studio Waterstone every Sunday.
Zinnea through my iPhone Hipstamatic app.
Immature grasshopper (he must really like my garden).
A fly which was caught mid-rub as if saying "what's that I taste?"
From April Fools Day: Hellebore with Ice/Snow.

I wanted to throw that last image in just to remind those of us in the throws of hot, humid temperatures that it was not that long ago that we were freezing our tushes off, willing to deal with this heat and humidity. Has a more powerful effect if you go stand right next to the AC vent and think about a freezing breeze…

Make sure to swing by the weekly "I Heart Macro" blog post to check out what others are sharing for their blog post.

    I'm so amazed by the photos that come from the iphones! Maybe I need to get one! I'm not complaining about the heat. I much prefer it to the cold!

    I'm so excited to actually have a photo this time for I Heart Macro!

    That hipstamatic shot is too cool! And I wish I had something other than weeds to show off.

    Thanks!!! I am a bit obsessed with using my iPhone and a small hand lens to get those really up close shots. Wish the phone alone could do it - and one day, I bet it will… I've been thinking of adding a few of the photos I've got to my Etsy shop. Must test print some first :)

    The Hipstamatic shot is amazing! Love the shots of the grasshopper and fly and yes the reminder of winter is appropriate as I am melting away.
