Very nice colours, good sharpness, and the square crop works for me. I like it!

Cheers
Steffen.

I'll just add that although that red does not look right, you have done well to get a both saturation and detail.

Forget the colour. This would look so awesome in a BW conversion. Those water droplets look so 3D. This, printed large would sell; for a large amount.

Thanks for the feedback folks. I will have to revisit the original now and check on the colour, I don't recall making any major adjustments to saturation..... But then again my memory is not what it used to be and it was never that good to start with!

Digital cameras struggle with reds at the best of times. This is a great photo. Can I ask which lens you used? Ozi.

Lens used was probably my least used buy also my favorite! The Nikkor 60mm f2.8 micro, always astounds me when I do use it and everytime ask myself, why dont I use this glass more often? Probably due to the convienience of my 18-200.

This is pretty cool Geoff.
There are flowers about that have these vibrant colours.

I can't really add any more to the comments except to say that this is a lovely image.
