This is my entry to the "Picture This" photo contest over at http://www.gardeninggonewild.com/?p=15262 Topic 'Macro in a Mason Jar' for January.
I cut three African Daisy blooms, placed them in the bottom of the mason jar with the back of the blooms facing up. I then laid a sheet of green tissue paper on top of a table lamp and set the jar on top of that.
Today I am Thankful for these photography challenges.

Very nice Darla!!
Very artistic look. I like your choice of color (shades of green) and the whole idea of using backlighting from the bottom.
Thanks for your nice comment on my entry. Yours is much more dramatic! Good luck!
Darla, wonderful idea and brill work, love it.
That is awesome! I have been playing around with the mason jar photos. It is not easy. I do believe you have a winner!
Also, I just got water in my camera today...and it is not working. :/ Not a good day.
Love this! Very simple but quite striking. Good luck!
I love it! What a great idea with the lamp.

Beautiful Darla. Love your idea with the lamp and tissue paper.
Love it Darla! I wish I had your eye for photography. I love the shadows and soft colors.
Very cool... I love Macro shots!
That is a really neat shot of the daisies. Quite impressive.
BEAUTIFUL!
Thanks for leaving me a note. Your macro is beautiful. I love that you use all shades of green. Do you have light shining from the bottom?
Your macro in a Mason jar turned out well. That was a good idea to light the bottom.

Gorgeous! Looks like a winning shot to me! Good luck!
that is awesome girl!!! you should frame some of these photos!!! You do great work!
Creatively taken, lovely!
Very nice!
Nicely done - I love the shadows too! Good luck!
Oh, Darla it turned out gorgeous. I love the under lighting of it. See some people are creative and others aren't. LOL! Good luck on the contest!
Just beautiful. What great creativity in placing the tissue paper and getting that great lighting. Love the shadows of the flowers.
You sure put some thought into this one! Good job and I see a Blue Ribbon coming your way :-) Love those cute little Titmouse. We have them year round and I get such a kick from them. Their crowned heads and tiny black round eyes are the best!
I love it, very clever.
Backlit flowers are so beautiful.
Good luck!

Very cool! And creative way to get the effect. I think the possibilities are endless :-) Can't wait to try it the spring/summer when I have some blooms. Not too many of those right now. Best wishes on your entry!
