Been missing your beautiful florals and comments/critiques. You've returned with a splash of color and textures. Lovely presentation, Ian.

The green center is such a contrast to the complimentary purple/pink and yellow. Superb work all around.

Great details and very nice contrasting colours, especially the green centre is amazing. Nicely stacked, may I ask how many photos have you stacked in this?

Thank you, everyone, for the comments. Tomas : to answer your question, I stacked 6 images for this one - all concentrated on the fg and centre to keep the more distant petals out of focus

Wow. I love the sharp look to the center and the 'wreath' Ian. Wonderful, wonderful shot.

Here the extended DOF works very well. Nice work with the stacking.
