Stigma
This is a shot taken with the 100mm lens and an extension tube. Every part of a flower serves a purpose. The stigma is easily identifiable on most flowers and has a very important job. Life on earth wouldn't be the same without this one little important plant part.
The stigma is generally in the centre of the flower and stands up on the style, taller than the surrounding anthers. It usually has a gelatinous or visceral appearance, which is slightly damp and furry.
