The grass loves the weather we've been having: cool and wet.
Where I haven't mowed it, it is flowering.
I was pleased and amazed when I saw this shot;
The flower was in focus!
I could see anthers, with yellow pollen, and pistils.
At least I think the white tendrils are pistils...
So, of course, I had to post it!

Amazing shot. Who knew grass could be so pretty? :)
Getting the focus right can be very problematic -- said he, who just tried to take pictures of an active bee.
Thanks for your lovely comment. You can also join my memories with photos from your children. Aren´t that not also memories? Yes they are. I will be glad to see you again. LG Tina
Wow. This is beautiful! Thank you for reminding me to always take a closer look.
You know much more than I do about it, I've never heard of pistils :) Nice shot.
Perfect focus Dimple, and great DOF! Well done.
Lovely shot Dimple. It has a Zen quality of simplicity and peace. The colors seem just right to me. Amazing what you can do with simple equipment.
what simply beautiful detail here!! Lovely!
Grass is really difficult to photograph - it has been driving me crazy!
Great shot!
Beautiul detail in your special image!
Great macro, Dimple!
We tend to overlook the flowering of grasses.
Unless one has hayfever I suppose :-)
Good to see it so close-up for a change.
Never knew grass could flower. Great shot!
Wonderful photo. A sight seldom captured by the naked and unseeing eye.

Nice Capture, Dimple! Every flower has its own beauty, and grass whose name is unknown, too.
I've been unable to post a comment with my Google Account to some people including you, so I'll do with URL and name.
Hmmmmm, I haven't been this close to flora in weeks! Busy with activities...gotta get back outdoors to the fields and grasslands...
Who would ever have thought we'd be taking pictures of "grass"!! But it just goes to show "anything" can be artistic and beautiful. Nice shot. Mickie :)
Lovely image, great composition!
It's a lovely macro, Dimple... and I can relate to being pleasantly surprised when a shot turns out particularly beautiful.
This is an absolutely gorgeous photo!! You should stand up and take a bow. I thank you for your supportive comment on my Cape Breton blog. I hope to return to blogging soon! ~karen
Great macro!
I am just taking a break from blogging because I have several projects to complete before the end of the month. One day , again!
the simplicity is beautiful.
Its a lovely looking grass.
The very humblest of plants can make a really lovely photo.

Very nice shot. I posted some grasses last year. I noticed grass burrs are already sprouting their thorny little heads, too.
