Why one have to resist temptation to take a picture of a flower? It seems that macrophotography was invented just to capture pollen grains in a picture!

Daisy[update: this photo had participated at Photo Friday in 25-11-05 ‘Yellow’ challenge as link n.866]

Focal length was 17mm in Macro mode and so you can see some little yellow pollen grains on white petals. The peculiar light in the photo is due to the moment, during the afternoon of few days ago, when this photo was taken and when the sky was without a cloud and the sun was low on the horizon. It’s important to be able to wait a better light.

Daisy’s scientific name is Bellis perennis, that means always beautiful in latin. In the language of the flowers to present the small B. perennis means: I will think of you. (source thais.it)
