Amazing form and colours... 28 Jul 2008 10:35am Monique from Koh Samui, ThailandI love this kind of DOF in flowerpictures. Great macrowork, the drops look like little diamonds. 28 Jul 2008 10:45am Koen from Antwerp, BelgiumVery nice shot, like the drops on the flower... adds a little to the photo. 28 Jul 2008 11:02am Laurie from New Jersey, United StatesBeautiful! Love the level of detail. The colors are interesting. I've not seen those in that color. Was it photo-shopped to achieve that color? 28 Jul 2008 12:41pm @Laurie: Thanks for your kind words, Laurie. No Photoshop manipulation ... this was a cluster of bright, bright orange coneflowers. This was taken at the Missouri Botanical Garden and I find that they often have specimens in colors that we don't see at commercial garden centers. After a few years they begin appearing in commercial establishments. It's probably recently been hybridized and not yet in commercial circulation. Thanks for you visit.

Who knows what is in those tiny water droplets. Another beautiful capture Ron. 28 Jul 2008 6:55pm @Marion: That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw these orange coneflowers ... I'd never seen an orange variety before, and when I examined them more closely I thought that an unexplored universe could exist in this unique species. dj.tigersprout from San Bruno, CA, United Statesmarvelous detail and color! radiant! bravo! 28 Jul 2008 8:05pm Marcie from United StatesStunning.
