This is a Gerbera I worked in '06 - one of the variations I shot. At one time I posted a different comp. in B&W, but I like color the best.

Canon 1D2
Canon 100 mm Macro
3.2 seconds, f/32, ISO200

VERY striking buddy... Perfect processing as usual. Do you ever screw up on processing? :mad:

Wow is right! The colors and contrast of the petals against the green sepals really adds to this. I'd put this one on my wall...

Great hook of a post title there, Ned.
I'll echo everyone's positive sentiments here. The oranges and yellows are so delicate it's breathtaking! Your equipment list makes me pine away for the old days when I used a Nikon with a real macro lens. The next time I rob a bank I'm buying a DSLR/macro setup.

WOW! Ned, this is a wonder! What a super job.

You guys are killin' me. I came home from my shopping with some delicious light pink tulips to play with. Can't wait! :eek:
