Photographing the Tiny

This is a seed, the red jobby with its utricle half off, and note the stamens on the utricle, of (Iresine rhizomatosa), we think. This was taken with some technology new to RGVECB that has been eagerly anticipated and arrived expeditiously. This is the very first photo taken with an Olympus C-5060, coupled with a 25mm LOMO plossl with a Digi-T camera adapter all stuck in a LOMO microscope. Ha! Perhaps we shall go into the business of making pictorial botanical keys for mere mortals.
