A few Macro Shots

I actually did enough steps according to my apple Health app to do an Actifit post today, its showing i did 5700 Steps, but the actifit is showing I only did 3554 steps, but I think that's my own fault I went for a walk around the compound with my apple watch on but not with my phone and I suspect the actifit app only counts step with the phone, so instead I will share a few macro shots I took recently on a walk around Mondo Pond trails,

This first shot I have no idea what kind of plant it is but I thought it looked pretty cool

And now lets go from cool and delicate to a little thorny

And now a simple pine cone with a bit of selective coloring done when I edited is as the color in the background i felt distracted from the pinecone

And now a similar or the same plant as the first shot but this one had dried out as had this leaf hanging on

I would much rather look at the pictures than read an actifit report, just saying. I never have uoVoted one of those actifit posts and not planning on doing that anytime soon. 100% upVoted good photos though and will continue that practice.

I feel the same, way and that why my acrifit posts will be similar to my other posts all be it some of the photos will be photos taken with my cell phone rather than with my camera

Oh I bet you love your new camera @tattoodjay!! These shots are great. I love the detail :) I'm going to have to try the actifit app I watch my miles on my phone anyway, but it would be even better to get paid for it, lol

I had two step tracking apps on my phone so I had put off loading actifit, but I am glad I did now, I walk a bit most days so getting paid for it is a nice bonus ;)

and yes I am loving this new lens took it out for a short walk today in the little burst of sun we had so have so me new shots to check out ;)

Looks like a sort of birch tree catkin, it could be a willow one but with the dead leaves likely a birch or hickory or possibly an alder tree/bush. We get lots of pussy willow buds, and birch catkins along with the alder bushes. I don't think we have hickory trees in Alaska, but a google search says they get them also.

Thanks for the info I am terrible for knowing the names of plants and trees

I still on occasion call birch spruce and spruce birch, so I know what you mean.

Thats better than me, I just go with green trees, colorful trees and bare trees lOL

Gosh, @tattoodjay ---> these are gorgeous!! That new lens of yours is not just spectacular, it's evidently inspiring. Great post!! (grin)

Thanks so much I took it out for another walk today in the little burst of sunshine we had, I should probably have taken another lens on the walk as it wasnt ideal for the walk but I did get a few new shots ;)

Nice. Love the purple blur of the first one. Did you take these handheld? If so, steady hands!

Don't think I'd like to mess with that thorny thing, but it looks interesting. I wonder what kind of plant that first one was. IThose dangling flowers look like they might make good temporary earrings for someone... lol

Lovely shots! I like the pine cone photo and the selective coloring you did. The colored twig added a nice touch to it.
