Friday Flower Blogging

The eager young hibiscus bushes were doing well this week, and yesterday I had some fun with them.

Hibiscus UA campus, December 2007. Normal macro view

	Stamen closeup 1 Supermacro, and a selective crop
	Stamen closeup 2 Supermacro, same stamen, different focus. (I didn't do this on purpose, alas, and I'm not showing you the half-dozen shots where nothing is in focus at all!)
	Stamen closeup 3 Little beads of pollen (best viewed Large, as they say on Flickr.)

Thanks! I love these flowers, and I'm very glad the new bushes on the campus (replacements for the ones that died in last winter's unusually hard frosts) are thriving.
