Thanks. I had a planter full of these to choose from. I just found one with good shape and proportions and arranged it in the frame. Processed with very minor highlight and shadow recovery and no cropping. I used an Olympus SRF-11 ring flash for more DOF. From the Huntington Gardens near Pasadena, CA.

Nature can be beautiful but it also know how to protect it's beauty. Survivor plant. It's a nice composition, well balanced.
