Bill:
Another beautiful shot. I like the golden glow of the anther tips from the early light.

Love the lighting and how it sets off the anthers. Nice flow in the comp.

Nice technicals. IT feels a bit unbalanced to me, though, with all my interest in the right half of the frame.

I particularly like how the light is creating a "rim glow" effect with the pollen on some of the anthers. Nice.

Very nice as well Bill, but if I had to pick I'd go with the former glory..days

The light there's more interesting/dynamic IMHO.
Have a great weekend

Good long lens technique, Bill. The way the anthers are set apart from the petals with seemingly they're own light is a nice effect from the 200.
