About this work
Dead man's fingers in the Wisentgehege Springe game park near Springe, Hanover, Germany. The "dead man's fingers" grows on the ground, the plant with the leaf grows in the background. I needed aperture 40 to show all tiny details smaller than 1 mm in the different fingers, therefore I got no bokeh in the background and the leaf is visible. But the leaf shows the tiny size by the "dead man's fingers". Visible of the "dead man's fingers" is only the hand (or head) in a large enlargement. The hand has a size of nearly 2 x 2 cm.
