This is a supermacro taken of, I believe, a Northern Green Bog Orchid (Platanthera hyperborea). I was trying my little macro lens (that I've had for ages) on my point-and-shoot outdoors for the very first time - and, of course, it rained and was quite windy, LOL! It's hard enough to get things sharp when I'm in my kitchen, taking supermacros of flowers or water droplets, so I got about as much success as I was expecting. Hopefully, though, on a sunny, still day, maybe it will work out better. You can hardly see these very tiny flowers on this species of wild Orchid. The flowers grow in a 2-10 cm compact elongated cluster and are green or yellow-green. Flowers are about 8 mm wide. Taken at Cobble Flats, off Elbow Falls Trail (Highway 66).
