 This is an outtake from the good challenge. For some reason, I didn't like it at the time. A re-edit, and it's the best I've got this month that I haven't already entered.
The subject is some sort of flowering plant that I know the name of but can't think of at the moment. It is backlit with a small shop light.

Nice lighting and details. This has very interesting balance between the buds and the flower.

Very pretty colors and composition. Would like just a touch more DOF so that petal in the foreground was in focus ... I think.
