Remember when I decided that what I thought was a Christmas cactus was actually a Thanksgiving cactus because that's when it was blooming? Well, it's blooming again, which I guess makes it a Thanksgiving-New Year's cactus? Some species of ๐๐ค๐ฉ๐ญ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ณ๐จ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ข, anyway.
Here I'm trying out the new clip-on macro lens that I got for Christmas, which certainly visualizes the stamens more clearly, down to the pollen-encrusted anthers. I can't wait until the weather is nicer again and I can go out in search of insects to try it out on (or until some cozy overwintering house bug pops out to say "hi" and get its picture taken).
