Pretty Large ones..may be 7 to 8 inches in diameter. Petals are not as thick as the regular ones we see but thick enough.

Shot in some very fine early morning superbly filtered light.

Flawless subject and image, Ram. The centered comp works well to enhance the pinwheel look of the flower. No nits whatsoever. :toast:

Ram--As Always, nice detail and a center comp to change things up. The texture in the petals is excellent :toast: ...............................Jim

One must open the large version to see the beauty of this photo. Your images are always special, Ram, even when they may seem normal in the distance.
Take care.

The details and the colors are wonderful, Ram. The nearly centered comp. emphasizes the symmetry and shows off the stamen and pistils very well.
