22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Grains

I love, love, *love* freelensing, particularly in natural settings. I was on the Garden Tour this year in my small city, happily snapping away, when I saw the beautiful, delicate pollen grains resting on the petals of this flower. I couldn't just walk away and leave them unphotographed.
