Interesting specimen, nice composition.
Excellent lighting
Very difficult scene well handled. There is a small patch of the seed head which is lacking in fine detail but nothing serious.
nicely done. I like the lighting. Might want to try a smaller aperture for future shots like this--looks like some of the threads aren't in focus.
Very nice. I like the detail captured. Good job on the cropping too.
Very nice Jim Is it natural light or did you use a flash ?
Very nice Jim. great use of natural light.
Nicer shot than what I got at the Two Rivers National Heritage...I have this one and I also got the name of it, but yesterday and today I had problems with my printer and at the end of day I was able to sort it out and printed something really nice to put on my portfolio album so I cannot tell you what this plant is...because I have moved my harddrive upstairs in my den... You shot is more beautiful than mine...mine lacks the shine you have here...
Thanks both.
Izzie I use Ronco shine in a bottle, works great.
