Great macro and detail. The displaying of only a small section of the flower in a flowing way, is well composed and presented. Consider just a slight levels adjustment to lighten the image a tad and yet maintain good contrast.
Wendi Donaldson
Thanks so much for the suggestion – I do seem to be dark on many shots…....sigh!
