Creative pov Charlie and excellent detail. Very strong comp, sweet light and a fine supporting bg. Don't know what you'd do to improve this.

Great choice for pov. I really enjoy the hairyness of the Rubeckia and you've done a great job of capturing that along with the yellow rays.

Surprised that this is 25% of the original. Detail still looks quite good. I like the POV and the complementary BG.

Thank you all for comments on this photo. I thought it might be interesting to post a full frame image to show, what I feel is a great step forward, that Olympus has made from the days of very high noise. Though I guess the large sensor cameras still have an advantage Olympus with the E-5, seems now to compete.
