Magnifying a very tiny subject to showcase its beautyness is always a great pleasure. This ring shape flower of an American mint plant is about 10mm in diameter. The plant itself is about 80mm tall. Along the trail people won't notice it but if you take the time, if you come down to its level, you will discovers that marvellous ring bouquet of lily like flowers (and more).

What a great shot Yves. Lots of impressive detail here which makes the flower appear to be much larger.

Wow this is quite a special capture Yves. Amazing detail and focus on the flower with such a nice bokeh. Well done.
