Taken during the full moon, after not being able to access another area for what I had planned. Many shots done, because of a light breeze, and rearranging the camera to follow the moon. Extra editing (Click Here) to be done after the challenge. Levels, Hue and Sat, and alot of fiddling back and forth with G-Blur and USM.
Additional photos available at Photos4Aidan. Also some here

the moon looked like a reflection of the torchlight used to shine on the flower! I didn't know it was a moon until I looked at your original photograph (thru your forum post)

The lighting, perspective and neg. space make this more interesting than most flower shots. But I think I'd like to see more light on the flower at the bottom of the frame.

interesting to have the moon and the flowers both in the frame. It is as it they are both hanging in space the way you have lit it.
