It is not a tabletop shot, so maybe it does not qualitfy?

This isn't on a table top, but it's something simple - tall grass:

Really nice images! Here's one a bit more prosaic but I liked the tree texture. Taken with 300mm.



From my hometown

EDITED later: Whoops, conditions need to be spelled out in opening post.
We position these things when outdoors too. Sorry I didn't read the
mid-topic comment from you re focus on table-top pics.

Thanks Pritchett for posting the beautiful fowers, which bumped the thread back up reminding me to comment. Thanks everyone who added, I enjoyed seeing all the shots. I think my personal favorites of the thread were by ralphandkylie, and I also picked up a couple of new ideas from everyone to shoot.
Good work!
