A stunning composition. If I didn't know better, I'd say those blooms look like little alien creatures with antennae! lol

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Dear Robert,
Since ALL your compositions are just perfect I will have to reject the biggest temptation of adding more praises ... LOL
Another ideal shot.

Beautiful photo, Robert! The background color complements the flower perfectly. Does each of these tiny buds open up?

Wow Robert, this is what I call "up close and personal'! The detail is breathtaking as is the high quality and the definition that the human eye can discern on this flower. This baby is going to my favorites folder on my hard drive as well as my favorites on the site.....we will see if it disappears as all my others did, or if it stays ;=)
Thanks for sharing this beautifully composed piece of art with me ;=)
