teeny snowflake

There's a pearl in every snowflake
It's a fortune falling free
and I can't help but believing
That it all belongs to me...

I googled that lyric hoping to credit it properly and Mr Google is unfamiliar with the song... I swear I didn't invent it!

Snowflake on macro. The red background is my new Olympic mittens :)

Random flower shot

Pretty purple flowers (possibly weeds, what do I know about horticulture) growing in the yard, macro style.

Fat free!

I'll spare you any more snow pictures today (if only because a MASSIVE storm is coming this weekend so there will likely be more snow shots to come) and instead present red licorice - fat free means I can eat the whole bag right?

Feather

I was too sick today to do much of anything, but I did amuse myself by aiming my macro at Katie's feather pencil topper.

Macro!!

Can you guess what it is???

Macro!

I found the super macro setting on my camera. This flower is in reality about the size of a penny! (Click to see larger). Way cool! What I really love about this picture is the ethereal glow that the late afternoon sun has given the flower.

Can't wait to play more!
Here's the teeny flower in non-macro mode.
