My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Cornelius - This is so crisp it look three dimensional. In fact, I opened it on my computer and it popped up and poked me in the eye! ;-) Outstanding work my friend. Thad

First of all, thank you very much for exif info. High level technical quality and beautiful composition. This should be indoor shot. Otherwise 4 seconds of exposure would cause some move and blurr. Well done my friend.

A wonderful closeup, Cornelius, far better than the one I scanned which was the exact variety as this one. The detail here is to be desired. You did such a good job on the capture.

Is that Nikon new to you? I was just looking at the D7000 and considered coming over from Canon. You inspire me with your images.

Reading some comments above, like to make clear that I posess this camera and lens already for some time. They were given to me by my (grand)children as a birthday present. That's also the reason that they are treated very careful by me (I'm using them not that much).

The center of that bloom is awesome and I would have filled the entire picture frame with just that.

The clarity, detail and sharpness of this are exquisite Mr C. Orchids have that special quality of texture and density in real life and your shot has captured that amazingly well. The top edge does seem to cramp those top petals a wee bit and the fully centred composition limits the visual dynamism a bit.
