Hi and welcome to the forum.
Coincidently, only yesterday I was browsing through your images over on the Macro forum. You have some stunning images.
It's fine to post the same image in the regional forums as well as the main galleries.

A stunning image to begin posting with, and hopefully they'll be many more to follow.

Very sharp and detailed. Colours are vibrant, although I wouldn`t want to look at that green and purple after ten pints!
Lovely shot!

Great looking image Guy. :toast: :toast:
You couldn't have wished for a better looking BG to compliment those Pinky/purple spots on the Cat.

Hello Guy,
That's a quality shot to start with. I'm looking forward to more like it too. I especially like the way thet the bg colours repeat in the spots and the stalk.
