at the Sanzen-in Temple (三千院), Kyoto Japan
The Voigtländer 125mm f/2.5 macro lens certainly does love itself some tiny flowers, and in this regard I can only encourage it. I found these dainty pink things yesterday in a garden at the Sanzen-in Temple (三千院) in Ohara, a mountain suburb of Kyoto.
The flowers looked quite different depending on what angle you viewed them, and on what stage they were in life.

I need to get myself a macro! 🙂
The flowers are of a begonia, and are of two types. The disco balls are the male flowers, i.e. a bunch of stamens, whilst the rear support structure is the 3-winged ovary of the female flower. I think your titles are rather better…
