Local Pollen
By Dan Murphy
• I started by collecting flowers from different trees and flowers in my neigborhood. After removing the stamens I made slides by rubbing them in glycerine.
• Most of the samples yeilded either poor amounts of pollen, or were uninteresting to look at.
• Surprisingly my best samples came from an unlikely source.
• “Bee pollen” collected by honey makers and sold as a nutritional supplement yielded many of my best pictures.
• Unfortunately it is impossible to know what flower each grain came from
