Minolta 200mm macro

I liked how the petals were backlit and the blush of light on the stamens/pistel. All comments welcome. >=))>

Beautiful color. Great selective focus. I like the backlight on the tiny hairs of the stamens/pistel--to me this really makes it.

Bill, Everything about this picture looks pretty good to me. Color, Clarity and the Composition along with the backlighting all put this over the top.

Well done.

Great DOF here Bill. Seeing this shot at f22 just might make me want to shoot a little bit more stopped down sometime...Nah! But I love the shot Bill. Great color.

Bill,

Very fine shot of a commonly photographed flower. The composition really sets this one apart from the others.
