When fully open, these vine-born flowers are about an inch across and hang in bunches. They're lovely and delicate, but I could never get an angle I liked. Shot at 1X, I think this take is the best so far. It also looked like an umbrella to me.

Thank you all for the nice comments. I'm just starting to get the kind of results I was hoping for when I first put this macro rig together. It was a $3,000 gamble and I'm pleased that my shots are moderately popular. Not everybody wants to see a fly at 100X life size, but small flowers are complex & fascinating in their own right. So I'm glad you liked it.
