    Backlit pepper seeds

    Interior of a red bell-pepper, backlit (by a single cheap desk lamp :blush2.

    Shot recently in a darkened room of my house... indoor macros are starting to become my main subjects now, since I currently can't go outside due to rain/snow/sleet.

    Attachment 62897
    Panasonic FZ7K with adapter tube, Kenko +2 close-up filter, Velbon CX-540 tripod, Panasonic DMW-AC7 AC adapter.

    Welcome any thoughts. :idea:

    Thanks, Rick.

    I was actually debating whether or not to post a thread titled something like "Can you guess...?" but decided to go as is now.

    I like it. If I hadn't seen the tittle, I would have thought it was some internal body part at first.

    I like that! I haven't been confined yet to the inside, despite the rain and occasional hail (weird weather I tell you) we've been getting. I'll have to try that sometime and see what I can capture!

    Thanks, chrismatthews.

    You really should try macros, it's fun... just exercise caution since it could be addictive...
