Unique stamens and pistil. I like how the OOF petals serve to display them.

Nice close-up view of the interesting center of this little flower. I like the contrast of the yellow with the sparkly white petals.

Interesting and unique capture of the flower of the horse-nettle, John. I like how you got close to your subject and maintained excellent detail.
