The tiniest flower of them all. Fat Duckweed Lemna gibba, 28X magnification. Macro-Nikkor 19mm f/2.8, Z7. My Multiphot bellow maxes out at 30X, meaning almost 60 cm of bellows draw. This would be impossible without the Multiphot setup.


very deep insight ... I feel it looks somehow sexual

"Homoerotic" -- two male parts here :)

The flowers do show a surprising variation in their build: staminate, pistillate, or dioecious flowers in a confusing array of flowering plants. Some have aborted carpels, others actively "suck in" pollen through funnel-shaped structures. and perhaps there is some insect pollinators afoot as well, since some pistillate flowers do secret nectar. The latter observation was very unexpected and novel -- haven't seen this mentioned in any of the duckweed literature I have read the last years.

I like it.  Extremely tortured metal/paint against soft focus earth/sky.
