Like insect eggs, the intricate design of various pollen's make them quite interesting to photograph. Images 3 & 4 most definitely speak of watery eyes and itchy nasal passages (sniff) :cry: Nice images :D

Pollen

My bad - I neglected to label the shots.
I usually make dry mounts of pollen. But the first one is Amarylis pollen that was in the mountant on the edge of the cover slip.
The second is daffodil pollen. Three and four are hibiscus pollen and the last is Tiger Lily pollen.
