Once upon a time, in a Very Green Kingdome, million light years away....

There was something... someone... sitting and waiting.

Another month of nature's blooming around have passed - and the fourth round of Macro Riddle contest created by @bambuka, arrived! In case you are not in the know of this nice contest, rules are very easy: you take a pic of something with macro lens, cut off a fragment and show us - and we try to decypher what was the full object. This round contest post. After the week is finished, all of us reveal the full photos to choose the wise guessers and send prizes. 🎁🎁🎁 The prize fund is 6 STEEM 🎁🎁🎁
Do I sound like I am advertising? Yes, I am. The more folks are in, the more fun it is all the way. Join!


Although I have prepared something beforehand... I feel a bit dull about using the ready stuff. I rather feel excited by the fresh stuff, as it is a game... so I created my entry from something new - from the stuff I had on my desktop!

GUESS
WHAT
IT
CAN
BE?

A few little hints, to simplify your quest: the thing is quite big... elongated... and edible! Perhaps thats all I can say without saying what exactly is is, haha ... Now let me wish you good luck.



...and remember about the prizes!

it was not a leechie, not a cacti - but a common cucumber! (well, a bit aged and slightly dried, but still covered with those amazing pimples. With all the magnification the scene really looked like hills and valleys. Hope you enjoyed playing a guess game!

This is the full macro image I captured (downscaled but not cropped).
This image was assembled from 18 separate shots.


Canon DSLR | lens 150 mm | f 9 | t 1/400 | ISO 200


And a few macro images from my recent photo-walks, for #CCS challenge.

GMO perfectness is a not bad thing... Arent they look like parallelepiped, huh?
Hope they got some proper 'pimples' xD

Maybe not a bad thing, but probably not a good thing entirely either :P
More like a generic pipe with round ends - like an elongated capsule ^^'
Pimples... well not really; you can see em, but barely feel em when touching it (this sounds rather weird ^^)

No it is not. Lychee peel is red, isnt it? well, I never saw them green on the trees, only on the shelves of greenery shops. Are they really green while maturing?.. 🌷 Anyway, thank you for making a guess. Nice to see the ball rolling! 🌷

It was the only close match in the image search ;-)) I found different shades of green, maybe ripeness?

Yes, I did a little research too.

So, it is something different. I will reveal the answer in 3 days, after the round is finished. I cant say "lychee" was very close, tho enough similarity to fool google image search. :D

I liked our solutions better (and they would be much tastier ;-)))

Удачно муравейка в цветок забрёл))
А по поводу загадки ... я должен найти 100 грамм прозрачного напитка определённой крепости от товарища Менделеева ... если я правильно думаю про зелёное чудо )))

Ты так витиевато выражаешься, что яс трудом тебя понимаю. Но если я тебя правильно понял, то да, ты правильно понял. И я этим скажу честно впечатлен! думал что уж куда труднее, загадал непрошибаемо. Ан.... небось ты и сам ЭТО фоткал в макро режиме, тогда наверное увидел знакомые холмы и долины.. да?

Не, этого красавца снимать не приходилось, но я помню его наощупь)))
И запах, когда с грядки ))
