I like this one Gary, colours and detail look really good, even better in the large version. I particularly like the curl of the petal - looks so tactile! Well done.

Excellent close up, I like the way the petal bends back in on itself, makes the shot have a 3-D feel to it.

Hello Gary, yes I would agree with you on the unusual detail, the twist in the colours and the depth detail all have good appeal to the viewer. Good focal strength.
