There’s that wonderful celedon color again. And even though they aren’t the focus of the post, I very much like those curly-cues on the right side of the photo. They look like curled ribbon on a gift package.

What an amazing image, Pete. Looks like something almost alien in those little trumpets.

How astounding everything miniature looks when enlarged. Almost expected Kirk and Spock to emerge round the trumpets. Everything in nature requires a closer look.

This is why I like to get close to these enchanted, alien worlds, for they are so different to what we are used to observing. Beam me up, Scotty! 😉
