This almost works, unfortunately the only sharp areas are the 2 stamens. Maybe using a smaller aperture than 6.3 would increae the dof enough to bring more into sharp focus.
The yellow/purple combination certainly catches the attention.

A very good effort, yellow is certainly a difficult colour to capture perfectly. However I think you have achieved quite a good job, keep on firing.

Thank you Christine, Adrian and Nathan for looking and commenting.
Adrian thank you for making detailed comment - it is so helpful to learn from others.
Looking back at this image after a few days I can see that, perhaps I've become caught up halfway between abstract and the impact image I was looking for.
Back to the camera! Smile Jacqui

Superb Jacqui, very good use of dof spot on. Wink the composition and presentation is excellent and you have filled the frame intelligently.
Well done.
Your friend Darryl. SmileSmileSmile
