Default Macro Challenge #58 Hobbies - time to award karma

The theme for our 58th Macro Challenge is Hobbies. Any macro or closeup shots of your hobbies other than macrophotography, preferably but not necessarily taken in the challenge period.
This challenge will run throughout the month of July 2012.
Please post your images in this thread along with any technical information you would like to share such as camera, lens, shutter speed, aperture, iso, lighting conditions, post processing, location, subject details, etc.
At the end of the month, we'll all award karma for outstanding work.
Brian v.

Well macrophotography is my main hobby but I'm also a fairly keen gardener including a collection of windowsill orchids.

Brian, you and Bob have some great images here! The bone and petrified wood are well done. The orchards are so beautiful!
