Sony A700
Minolta 200mm macro
ISO 400, 1/20 @ f8 LOTS of spot cleanup!

Saw this BOP petal aimed at a pair of leaves and thought it may have striped the edge. All comments welcome.

I like the composition Bill, but I don't like the vertical red stripe. I'm not sure what (if anything) could be done with it, it just looks OOF to me. I'd like to hear the other opinions, and this just might be me.

Bill - Really love the crunchy punchy colors here. Pin stiping for sure and love your interpretation here. Fun really is in the interpretation - was stumped for a few seconds initially.

Bill:
A most unusual composition of this BOP. Good eye for spotting this.

Intriguing image, Bill ! I do think there is an interesting relationship between the petal and the leaf edge, as if something is about to spark. Still trying to work out where the rest of the flower might be !!

Hi Bill

Love your imaginative interpretation here.

The graphic detail and vivid color make for an exceptional and thought provoking image
