@BIF: I did a "research" , but didn't find the blowout in PPed pics and it didn't happened when it on camera (it blinks continously), here is the copy by PrtScr histogram of the 1st pic (I chose randomly)
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7276/6943063120_a7bf6dabc5_o.jpg

I doubt that is not a blowout, I also feel a little bit eyesight stimuli to see at those pics, and all they come from one of the best Zeiss lens : Apo-Makro-Planar 120mm f/4 and the barest digital sensor - Foveon sensor for SD9 has no microlens plate as the must have of every digital sensor- to boost (or funnel) fotons and raise the ISO.Or there is a new "phenomenon"?

@DocsPics: nice flower and petal details.
@buggz2k: swirled caused by meniscus, get Achromat instead.

@jotdeh: thank for nice comment.Water -Lily is one of the most difficult flower to take pic, because it has super fined details, this time I took with Achromat +5.

But I like it, it's the first lens, that I have, that I can get to swirl on 4x5
It doesn't do this all the time.

Canon 5DMkII, Minolta Rokkor 58mm f1.2, cheap Chinese macro bellows, post processing - convert from RAW to jpg, to sRGB color space, and resized.
Pretty much straight from the camera.
Some kind of really tiny wild flower.

Thank BIF, I am eagely to learn everything good from this and other tribunes as the main key of my progress.My knowledge about histogram is in basic level.As I recognised, if the grey core reaches near the right limit or touches it, it would cause the blow-out effect, that's right? and here I cann't see it, right now am a little confused, or I missed something?.
