What on earth? in Macro #18

Win the liquid author rewards for this post.

#13 was won by @nepd with "carpet" as the correct guess.

This was the hint:

#17 has been won so no roll over there.

This is macro Photography so its something small that is enlarged in the photo.

First correct answer wins all the liquid author rewards for this post... after its paid out.

I'm looking for one word, 6 letters:

this is a _ _ _ _ _ _

If nobody gets it the pot will roll over to the next one (#19)

One shot per account. You don't need to vote or anything (although it may increase the pot)

I will put up the result a couple of hours after we have a correct entry.

This one has not been won yet so try it out.
