Beautiful macro, Chris! The touch of dark pinks amongst all the green hues is especially striking! #4763373

I like this soo much, Chris. I have spent hours (well, not quite, but a very long time) trying to get a good photo of a zinnia bud. I love the scalloped design and the spherical shape. You have captured both and in a very pleasing composition--nice dof. I have never gotten anything like this. #4763449
