I really like this. Maybe a tad oversharpened but still very nice.

Blooming heck, I dont normally comment on plant shots and find myself doing it twice in one visit to the forum, really like the simplistic quality in this shot, well presented.

I have never had any success in getting such a good clean image of these. A difficult subject showed off to perfection. Very nicely taken.
