An archived image from two summers ago... learned a new technique from a fellow NPNer (extremely easy involving "hard light" and "gaussian blur")... This is close to full frame.

Nikon D60 55-200mm VR lens @ 200mm
f/5.6
1/640s
ISO 200

I'd say it's a fine technique Luke. Beautiful color in this one and I think I like the bg nearly as much as the flower.

I like this as is and I think the negative space works well with this image. Nice work Luke.

Luke:
Very excellent! The larger version is magical. Love to hear a bit more detail on the PP. A vertical crop may work as well.
