This was actually shot in broad daylight, but the combo of aperture and shutter speed the background went black. I bounced light from a single SB-900 flash off of a white piece of plastic.

What a wonderful, wonderful shot. Perfect lighting, perfect sharpening - it even looks a little tone-mapped on the stem. I wonder if it is.

This has set a new standard for flower shots.

This has a delicate quality. I feel an intimate relationship to the gerbera. It's really pretty. Maybe if the focus was more on the droplets and the stem and bottom of the flower were slightly out of focus? Hmmmm - just thinking out loud.
