With all the great flowers in bloom right now I feel abit silly posting a staged shot, but when the weather doesn't cooperate we must make due.

7D, Manual Exposure with tripod, Canon 100mm macro, iso 100, 2 sec, F/20, side lit from window.

Thanks for looking and all C&C welcomed.

Staged shot or whatever this looks great. I love how the light interprets the flower petals. Great job.

Beautiful work John. Certainly no need to apologize to me for an indoor shot. Even more than the weather you can go for days without decent light.

I like this. I find the pov interesting and the composition elegant. I might like just a touch more light on the yellow center but no other suggestions.

I like this alot John, It really stands out beautifully against the black BG, and I know what you mean about the weather. Well done.

Great contrasts in light and color. Excellent dof, pov, and I like the inclusion of the curve stem. Very well done!
