Wow! Did you use a macro flash kit to shoot this? The shadow cast on the right side of the flower is unusual.

The composition is excellent IMO. Very sharp too!

Edit: By the way you have some really neat photos in your gallery there (presuming they are all yours). Keep up the good work, your lighting techniques are impressive.

Another excellent pic from you. Although I'd have liked a tighter crop on the right (too much of the green). But read my disclaimer below :wink:

Well Done Mic on another great shot. I always look forward to your posts as I dont think I have been let down yet. While shooting mainly motor sport (for now anyway) I always find your shots very interesting and enjoyable...

Thanks oli, :wink: I used SB800 on Remote / 105mm Micro Nikkor / 1/60th Sec / F 22.
I then saturated the red in Raw, added a bit of contrast, sharpened,
sized & wella.

All Images on my Website are my own babies, no one else's oli.
