Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 28 March 2008 in Plant & Nature.
I was slowed down the last week or so due to a fall. I'm on the mend. Thank you all for visiting and commenting. You make taking photos worthwhile!
Playing with the macro lens plus a magnification filter (1:1). Taken indoors near a window.
MANY THANKS FOR VISITING!! ENJOY!!

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.

You won't believe this (or maybe you will), but I had just clicked on your image, here, I got the little tone that I had a new message and it was from you! Oh well, I'm a sucker for serendipity! I saw your post in the community page and was immediately attracted to the gorgeous color. Take care ...

Wonderful colors! So bright and wonderfully saturated. Hope you feel better and mend soon so that you can get outside and enjoy the spring weather...

@standley: So do I. Thanks!
I forgot to add that I did the croping in the camera. I'm so proud of myself! I'm learning.

Very compelling image with a bit of mystery with the insides peaking out. Great composition, Anita.
