Hi James - Gus is the expert on Flowers - so will leave the techs to him.

Looks a tad under exoposed on my screen - a bit of S/H does make it pop more.

Keep them coming :)

Hi James,
A very fine specimen indeed, The flower is a tad under exposed, I would open up the mid tones and selective sharpen the contours of the petals...also would clone out the green leaves on the bottom to place all of the attention and focus on the main subject...I would like to see this again as a re post after the corrections are made..You have a beautiful capture here...:):cool:
