I was familiar with the name of the flower but not how it looked -- now I know.

The flowers are pushed to the edge of looking fake and I like it. Especially the veins in the pedals. Very nice!

So, I am extremely jealous of this photo. I love photographing flowers and personally think I have achieved some very nice shots of them. But never have I taken a photo with this much focus and detail! Fantastic colors and lighting as well! 9

Fantastic shot. I love the light, and also how you managed to keep most of the picture in focus. A serious candidate for a ribbon, as far as I can tell.
