#215-365 Ornate

There were a million things that qualified for this but playing with my macro Lens produced this and I am very pleased with the result. The five red pestiles together were smaller than a cigarette even spread out like that, it was tiny but beautiful.

This is really a pretty cool shot - it would have qualified for "abstract" too!

Hi Ron,
Very nice photo!! I don't have any extra lens to play with. I've just got the one that came with the camera. Would love to have a macro lens and the camera to go with it.

Very nice shot! I like the way they look like little tenticles reaching out to get you.

Very nice. Great color and I like how the flower seems to flow through and out of the frame.
