You dont see too many WA closeups! I like it, its strange to see straight tree trunks, we are used to the WA pincushion dist in an image like this.

I like the image but I wish the lower edge was clean and that you did not clip the bottom of the plant and a little more room over all.

Did you use flash fill or a relector? shadows look good.

A lovely composition John with good exposure and detail. Just wish for a little extra space top and bottom.

Hey John, it is nice to see a wide angle macro. I like the image overall, but would agree with Robert that it needs a little more on the bottom. Great job on the details.

Hi John,
Very cool angle. A reflector adding a little light into the darker areas would be the icing on the cake......along with the above mentioned improvements!
