Beautiful colors in this daisy, Bill! I like the way the colors progress from yellow, to orange, to red, to purple as you get closer to the center of the flower. Also, very nice detail that shows up in the larger version. Very nicely done!

Bill - Nice slightly off center comp for this Gerbera. I particularly like the many curls in the highly detailed center :smile:

I never looked this closely at a gerbera! I love the varying shades in the center & the way they curl inward!
