This is a beauty Jeff! I like the center weighting, soft colors, and DOF. Nice neutral BG that is just the right tone to set off the flower. Looks good to go to me. #1541956

very cool Jeff what is your background, and lighting. I agree a great shot especially for a center wt. image #10821830

Thanks, Mike and Rita! I'm pleased with this one as well.

Rita - the background is just the dried grass in the distance behind the flower and the lighting is compliments of the rising sun. Nothing fancy about the setup on this one.

Here's another shot of one of these flowers (I have no idea what they are). #10822070

Nicely done. Very original composition. #10822645

I really like the DOF and amazing focus you have on the first one. I like it better for the simplicity of it. #10823231

Beautiful shot Jeff! I love the colors and DOF. I do think I see a tiny bug in the middle of the purple . . . #10823398

Looks like an ant to me Teresa. Beautiful flower. #10823416

Creative composition and lovely colors. I wouldn't change anything, but I would play with this interesting flower... I think a black background would be stunning. #10823808

Thanks, everyone!

Susan - That's an interesting idea on the background. I'll have to play with that when I'm home next week. #10825206
