First rate photo, John. Lighting is excellent, the POV is just perfect - the lines radiating from the center and the tiny flowers are well seen from this angle. Great working on the stacking too :toast: :toast:

John,

Don't know that I can add anything to what Ram has already said other than, I really enjoy your selection of subjects as well as the presentation.

Thanks both.
I find in my doteage that looking at simple things with the new digital era technology can be so interesting.
Subjects don't have to be exotics !
Your interest is really appreciated.
Thanks

Nice image. Like the POV and the black bg showing off the white flowers.

Fascinating structure to this plant. I also like your pov and dof. The high contrast works well to illuminate the blooms.

I really like the use of stacking here. I find flowers with this structure very difficult and I think you have done an excellent job!
