Lovely detail here - sure would like to see a larger version.
Beautiful specimen, and sweet BG
To me, Seems a little tight on the top -

Eirini - Can write a lot of obvious things but in the end they will all mean that this is a wonderful shot. One of the best I have seen for this Dayflower. Enough said :cool:

Very nice! The use of a stack allowed you to select an aperture that blurred the BG and still get nice detail throughout the main subject. Must not have been any wind... :wavey:

Wonderful combination of softness and exquisite detail in a lovely composition. I appreciate colors, perfectly realistic and stunning with no need for exaggeration.
