Hey gang, we did our first art show recently and this image brought many compliments. I did a scan of our posts folder on the server and found that I had never posted this one to the forum. So here it is!

It is a very close up shot of a white lily. I wanted to emphasize the lines and curves in the center of the flower.

Wow that is a "very close up" hard to belive thats just the straight 100macro, looks like it would have had to have an extension tube on it or something... very cool

very nice Rick! I like the detail. I would be tempted to crop a bit off the bottom, but I like it either way.

Beautiful, but maybe a little too abstract for me..... but I see and appreciate what you were going after.
