Dried Pea Pod Glowing in the Morning Sun

I found this pea pod glowing warmly, the sun shining through and illuminating the seeds inside. The texture and tones are amazing to me--it's very hard to see this unless the sun is shining through the pod! I was very happy with the bokeh too! That's another thing about macro photography that you may not know: unless you take the time to study every picture just after you take it, the bokeh is largely an unknown. After literally over 100,000 pictures, I'm finally getting an small idea of what I might expect, but it takes forever to translate crisp surroundings into bokeh in your mind. Two years in and I'm finally beginning to learn this "language." I think the myriad facets of macro photography are endlessly fascinating and I love that there will always be a neverending world of education waiting for me!
