Just discovered Gerbera's Philip. Thank you for the inspiration to explore further. Sweet capture. Question - are these the real colors or your creative color rendition. Looks intense to me.

Wow, that's some vibrant color! I would try to sell this as a Valentine's card because the center looks almost like a heart. Super shot!!

I remember this frenzy of red Philip, those center white dots are mesmerizing.

The center looks like an underwater coral kind of thing. Striking photo, Philip
