Gerbera Daisy

Flower from a floral design class I'm taking. Natural light and tripod.
**I APPRECIATE YOUR VISIT AND COMMENTS**
*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****
I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

What a Beautiful "Easter" Pink color! This is absolutely stunning!

@Kerri: Thank you. This is the real color of the flower. Amazing, isn't it?

I love your simple composition, Anita. The compositional placement gives this a sense of shyness, as if it is trying to hide in the corner. Great emotional impact.
