1st macro shot

I came home the other day after a rain & found my hibiscus blooming on the deck. Had to get a step ladder to take this pix, lol.

As alway, I would appreciate ANY constructive criticism!

A good macro. Vivid and punchy and sharp from the front to the centre. very impressive, especially as you were up a ladder at the time.

Its just going out of focus on the stamens but I think you got away with it!

You could perhaps crop a little of the green background from the left, but not much or the flower will be too central.

It's very good...I like it.

Your subject is absolutely amazing!!! The ONLY thing I can say i wish the BG wasa more smooth...But I don't think there was a way around that since you were on a ladder! Great work!
