Nice focus, great shot. It looks good with the solid background, and is nicely lit - can't wait to see more eh!

Thanks Stan, Marie, they are such lovely flowers and do sometimes look like they have faces.

This picture is of one of the blooms isolated from the rest. There are around 6 blossoms on the stem.
