About Here's one of those dahlias that I am waiting for. Still fooling around er... experimenting with the macro lens. I really like the symmetry of this bud.

Exposure information is correct, again!

Correction: Oops, my wife chided me - that's not a dahlia, it's a zinnia

Thankz Jim,

For this fantastic beauty !

A perfect image. Strong composition and excellent DOF. The colors are also very fine, the contrast between the flower and the rest guides immidiately the attention to were it belongs.
Compliments, you have a very nice IG.

Greetz,
Albert

Jim - with the formation of those petals underneath, this shot (especially the thumbnail) looks to me like a lovely ring in a jewelers shop!

This is one of the best macros I've seen here and the background colors... Noone could have found more suiting than this.
Congratulation.
I love that your exposure informations are always correct (i can learn a lot from them). Keep up with this good habbit.

Tim Long Tim Long   {K:9228} 10/31/2005
The symmetry is impressive, as is the way that you used the light and dof to isolate the bud, and the background composition that draws my eye into it. The background makes this one for me. Good eye, Jim!

Glad you liked my flower, Jim. I see you have discovered the joys of macros, as I did recently. This one is unusual--and just literally bursting with life.

Jim,

I am impressed with this piece of glass my friend... I do love your DOF, but I would like to see it shot at 125 @ f/8 just so the tips of the bud were a little more in focus...

Just a thought,

Martin

hello there,

nice use of dept of field, and not putting the flower head in the middle of the frame is great.

the nice subdued brings the shape and texture of the flower head.

cheers peter.

Clever title and a neat image. Hard to imagine all the future bloom is so neatly tucked into that bud in such a compact and symetrical manner. I will watch for the blossom when it is posted. Del.

Nice DOF. Have you thought about trying it as a B&W image to emphasize even more the graphic elements of the bud?
