Lest I would forget my efforts earlier this week, here is the Tiny Mousetail Myosurus minimus in all its 25mm tall glory. I surmise only botanists at heart can truly love the encounter with this kind of species? The Mousetail shared its habitat with the likewise small grass Poa irrigata.

Z6 with Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 125mm f/2.5 lens, around 0.7X. It would have been much easier to haul out the trusty Df for this capture, but I didn't realise that until it was too late. A lesson learned that the newest not always is the optimal approach to a problem.

Very nice, had to look it up!

That lens looks good.
Yes. It looks like a better sample than I had before.
