Larry, I shot this in the corner of the room where there are two windows: one to the north, the other to the west. The light was probably bright, but indirect. Typically in that corner I use the blinds to control the light, but those bright tips make me think there was a ton of light coming through. The surface 'skin' of that flower is very shiny and smooth, which probably made it more likely to serve as a reflective surface.

Thanks again for your generous remarks.

Another winner! Mary Sue, what kind of natural light did you have? I notice bright highligts on the petal tips.

Hi Mary :) long time no see, got your message, and wanted to respond,, this photo caught my eye right away, popped it up, for a closer look and OMG its STUNNING!!!so pure, clean and crisp sharpness, your work is a level above Mary, so very impressed.im suprised this one doesnt have an Editors Choice on it, you asked about how i been donig stuff lately,i did just get a digital camera, and am still trying to figure out how to get good images that I dont have to photoshop to death, thats something that always bugged me, all the comp work on stuff, and now here I am, more of a photoshop artist than a photographer, Email me at M.A.Mora@nebi.com, so i can get your email, and if you like I'll fill you in on what I been adding to my stuff :)

Thanks for the continued feedback about this image. I appreciate everyone's comments. Regarding ratings, there is no bug. I opted for the 'no ratings' choice when I uploaded the image. I deeply value comments, but ratings don't matter much to me so I don't use them. Again, thank you very much for your remarks, it encourages me a great deal :)

Mary Sue - This is great! For some reason, I can't rate it, so I'm going to send an email to Al to see what the problem is.

Good job (enough to make me check out your portfolio - haven't been there yet, but this shot makes me expect good things)

Wow MarySue, this is unbelievable. New cameras are so much fun. It seems to me that you already have the 10D down! Very good macro.
