This is called a commercial Mum, and it actually quite a large flower. I didn't do too much to it. The usual sharpening, PP, amd cropped and added NIK tonal contrast, and Topaz Small details. Shot at f32 w/ the 100, tripod, using Live view, indoors. I liked the way the detail turned out, and I like purple:)
C'mon guys let's see yours!!!!!! In the PP category.

Simply gorgeous! One of my all time favorites of yours Jackie. Plus I love purple too:). The petals have so much dimension to them. I bet this would even look great with an Orton effect. Great way to kick us off!!!
