Equipment used was two Macro Nikkors 35+19mm, a modified Olympus variable extention tube and a 375nm UV LED light. All shots were done at ISO400 to capture the faint fluorescence, thus the higher amount of visible noise.
So this was the one from a previous session...[click on image yields a larger version].
Now let's dive in...
and deeper...
Now let's switch modes from "visible and fluorescence" to "UV and UV induced visible fluorescence":

and deeper....reaching about 14x magnification on CCD, on screen ca 160x...
So this wonderful little flower has it all, a nice visible appearance, a sharp UV pattern, fluorescent petals, pollen and stems (even in different color!)...
Lenses used were Macro Nikkor 35mm+19mm on a modified Olympus variable extention tube + RMS mount adaptor. UV LED 375nm. Camera used was the Olympus E-510.
Stay tuned, more will follow on that subject...
