Very rich, Brian well done.
I'm interested to know how you have your parameters set on your XT for this shot.
I'm asking because I've been taking lots of macros lately but my shots seem to come out very warm, high redish overtone.
I have my parameters set with the contrast and color tone in the middle, the sharpness set +1 and saturation +2.
Any advise on a better setting?

I shoot in RAW, so I don't think the Parameter settings have any affect.
Just had a look and they are set to " Parameter 1 "

If you are shooting in jpeg try Param 1.
