Science is still pretty!
Grains of pollen come in all shapes and sizes. The large object in the centre of this image is pumpkin pollen; the tiny speck just below and to the right of it is forget-me-not pollen.

Blasted pumpkins! Not that your picture isn't very pretty and cool- how do you find these??
I have been trying to 'make' a pumpkin for several years- the plant grows like hell but no pumpkin.. *sigh* So Pumpkin is kind of like a swear word these days!
Geez - I thought these had come from the depths of the sea ... still, they are purdy.
AA - I had the same problem with my pumpkin plants ... try miracle grow soil.
How lovely that I can look at this beautiful pollen and not sneeze once!
They look like works of art...or creatures of the deep ocean...or body invaders....
Mother Nature is the best artist! What an amazing exhibit :)
Wonderful picture. I thought I was looking at sea creatures or sponges. So pretty and yet so bothersome!

i'm going to have to question my cleaning regime, as those delectable technicolour images resemble what i find swimming in mugs when i am hunting blindly in the mornings for a caffeine receptacle
