It looks like a volcanic flower about to erupt. You sure did your your homework on this one Randy. Excellent post. Both visually and spiritually.

If it's Sharon's rose, you should give it back. lol I like the light coming through the petals, but your point of focus seems uncertain. The colors are pretty too.

now then young sir - I tried to perm this but couldn't bring myself to do it because of the DOF and slightly odd focal point - personally I would have cheated and kept schtum by comping two images together - this one and a duplicate with the focus right at the front - ignorance is bliss and all that :-)
