One of the photography websites recently had an interesting item about whether, given the billions of photographs which are taken each second (yeah, I've forgotten the numbers, but it's a lot), it is still possible to take an original photograph. Their conclusion was no, it isn't, but it is possible for each of us as individuals to take a particular photograph for the first time. My conclusion is that it depends how abstract you're prepared to go (in my opinion not much or you're doing digital art rather than photography). Take snowdrops. Is it possible to take an original photograph of Galanthus nivalis? Probably not.
Galanthus nivalis.
Lycopodium is a small non-flowering plant, about 1 dm/3 inches high or across. The plant does have spores, but none were present on this plant when I took this photo. Here's a photo, showing the spore-bearing body. In some places, such as here, the plant carpets the forest floor.
I probably should have removed the stick/pine needle/something from the upper left, but didn't.

As stated in Wikipedia, this plant has a very interesting history:
"P. peperomioides is an example of a plant which has been spread amongst amateur gardeners via cuttings, without being well-known to botanists. Its true identity was not finally established until the 1980s."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilea_peperomioides
We can confirm the strange iter of its diffusion, since we have this plant since many years and it came to us from my wife's Swedish friends.

So much rain here, but beauty can still be found in this tiny puddle of water in the top of one of my balloon flowers
I stuck the camera underneath these downward hanging flowers on the tomato bush and got this lovely picture. :)
This mysterious and tiny new plant life was discovered just recently. As I watched you could see the tiny little finger like tubes extend outward from the those bud like shells. You can see examples in the lower left and middle right. These little finger tubes were looking for food and would snatch anything that came too close.
The discovery of this mysterious plant life was made earlier this evening when I was looking in the frig for something to eat and found this mysterious head of broccoli. A head of broccoli is made up of all these tiny little buds that you see here. The area covered in this shot is about the size of a nickel. It's not always a good idea to take a large macro of your food. You may see something in the macro that isn't so appetizing. Like little finger like tubes that look like worms. HMM
