James- this is perfect. You can even see the shadow of the fly on the petal. The cropping seems just right. The detail is outstanding.

Interesting shot…the colors are awesome…I know this one didn’t have a long exposure time..which tells me that no matter what kind of shot you take, it’s in the acute awareness of the senses…honed skills where their is no substitue for “time and experience.”
