Pollen & Purple

Purple Pansy
Decatur, Georgia, across the street from my daughter's house
4/17/2017 – 12:46:02 PM (darkly cloudy day, rained about 3 hours later)
Canon EOS 7D Tamron 90mm Macro Lens
1/40 sec;   f/16;   ISO 640 (f/16 was intentional, thus requiring the 1/40)
Manual;   Evaluative metering
LR5, PS6, removed some of the pollen, Topaz Details, Curves

I wanted the center(s) at all planes in focus, that's why I used f/16.  The Tamron lens does really well with maintaining the true colors even at very slow shutter speeds.  So when I saw how the images were looking I decided there was no reason to wait for a brighter day.  I like dark images; most people don't; therefore I used Curves to brighten this one, even though I also liked it as it was.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!
