Another macro shot from Roma Street Parklands taken yesterday. It's a Grevillea, one of the most varied and spectacular Australian flowers.

More images and prints available in my Deviant art and Redbubble galleries.

Fantastic image!
What aperture are you using on your macros and what is the shutter speed set at?

Your name fits perfact, it looks like it tentacles. Sharp and clear, I like the contrast of the bright red to the background, and that you have placed th flower in the lower corner.

A real beauty. I love the settings you used to photograph this lovely flower. It's a real winner in the composition department as well. I like how the tips are a little soft focus. The background defines the composition well. Great job.
