Not a true macro, but I adore these buds at this stage

It isn't as sharp as I would like but I haven't done anything other than crop and resize (I feel like anything else is cheating until I learn to get the results I want from the camera only). Other than that, C&C?

Interesting shape and form, perhaps go in a bit close and tighter to the flower. Did you use flash or natural lighting? Image seems a bit flat, was it taken around the middle of the day (with the lighting being the harshest)?

No flash. Early afternoon, I think.

Nice bud. I think it just needs the levels adjusted to perk it up a bit.
