I like this, although I'm not really sure how you got the petals to look like that. I've never seen a flower so transparent, but perhaps it naturally looks like that! Either way, nice shot!

What an odd flower, but so nice to see something different. Love that you got the backside. I really enjoyed this one.

Back for comments. I have never seen a flower like this. It is beautiful! You've done an excellent job with the translucance (spelling?). 9 from me.
