Bud Squared

MI

This is a cone flower bud that is growing in my garden. The background is the background which
I assume is the mulch under the bud. Post processing was sharpening, squared (LOL) with a soft edge, and resized in PS 7.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/160s f/8.0 at 100.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Lovely flower Cheryl! Is this a passion flower? I like the perspective, the soft colors and the detail. CJ

Very nice close-up, Cheryl! I like how the background color echos the color on the tips of the petals. ~Sharon
