Reply from the photographer:

"The picture was taken with a 72mm Tiffen 80B (a medium blue) filter screwed onto the front of the camera ~2.5 years ago when I was in northern California. The only reason I know it was an 80B filter is because that's the only blue filter I had at that time."

I can see where the actu see why its called 150X150. Why wouldn't it be, like in my berries picture, say 110X120 or so?
The thumbnails are square. The grey frames are part of the thumbnail. Irfan View adds them automatically when creating thumbnails to make all thumbnails the same size.

So I was right, the actual thumbnail image is not 150^2, but some portion lopped off, either vertical or horizontal and in the case of my berries, smaller in both dimensions. What is Irfan View? I feel like such an idiot here, I know plenty about music software but not so much about graphics/photography.

Lovely. Would like to crop off the blue background on the right though admit that might unbalance the shot. Did you use a macro lens with this?
"Pollen wasn't shot with a macro lens, but with a 50mm lens with a screw on macro filter (a +4 one)."
