this is about the max in dynamic range of my camera ( canon 20d ) without resorting to HDR-combined shots.

Man, envy - this is what I feel when I look at the possibilities of your camera. I wish mine could do the same, lol. Nice shot, especially the very center of the flower with the tiny little petals hiding from the bright light.

I really like the use of shadow and light here. The contrast/illumiscence could be changed a bit, the heart of the flower is a little unclear. Overall great capture and treatment as has become expected! Good job!

Workers nr 157 and nr 20D make a fine team, even without HDR.
Both of them are almost pro's and they probably will be some day when Canon delivers that long hoped for 120db CCD.

A lovely white mum. It is very soft and looks like a painting. I don't like the close ups I get from my Canon Rebel. I always go back to my 4 MP Kodak for that.

It gets better as it goes along, but will have your attention from the first quote.

Very well captured. I wish the center of the flow is a bit more lit. But honestly I dont know if this is the way u wanted it so I'll take it for the way it is.

What a fabulous macro shot, clear and sharp where it should be, soft and muted in others. You just get better and better Kristof.

What a gorgi. Very nice macro. Love the lighting. The center of the flower could be lit/focused on more, but I like it just the way it is. Into my favorites for sure.
