The first two are from a series taken of a single milkweed seed with water drops. I hand held using a cheap 50mm 1.8 lens and a stack of extension tubes. The DOF is so small I was never sure what would be in focus, which led to some interesting outcomes. The third is just a slice of red onion.
The third one is actually purple cabbage, not red onion.
I viewed your photos first and when I read this comment I thought, "What's he getting on about, is he off his meds again?"
Then, of course, I finally read your post.
I love playing, er, using extension tubes. Some come out okay while others, such as yours, come out fantastic.
I love all of them and I have got to try the Red Onion trick but using Purple Cabbage instead.
Thank you for posting!

Image 1 and 2 has some mystique feel and that is interesting in my opinion.
They both have different feel and unable to choose one over other.
Some more enhancement perhaps.
Cheers
Sweet. The first one has a great, very interstellar feel.
