This is a sundew in flower from Western Australia. The whole sundew is probably about 2 inches wide

Interesting, I have never seen Sundew flower before. Very good positioning for DOF.

Was the lighting flash+ambient?

Would like to see the rest of the series, moving in closer to a blossom only crop would be great to see also.

The exif data for this shot says 1/500sec and no flash used but I think this is incorrect. This was taken last year and I think it would have been with the Nikon SB21 speedlight and around F20

Hey Tony, great looking little flowers, and the ants add a nice touch. Well done.

Interesting image Tony - I haven't seen sundew flower before either!! I like the excellent detail in the white petals and the ants further enhance the composition. Nice one!!
