Took this over the weekend. I don't have a macro lens yet, so I did the best I could with my 18-200. No tripod or lighting, just steady hands!

I saw this and started thinking Georgia O'Keefe - it would make a great painting.

I think, IMHO, that it should be a tad brighter, or WB better. Otherwise I like it. Nice that it is not composed dead center.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that there was no PP done at all to this. Only cropped it a bit.

Lovely capture - suspect I would have tried to get the central part a bit lower and to the RHS a bit more in the crop.
