Another angle on the lilies.....They are such a beautiful shade of pink.

A macro star is born! Just takes a new D80 and lots of talent (that's you, Mandy). Nice image.

@Viewfinder: Thanks VF!!! You're too kind friend! :)
Rob from Velveetaville, United States
Very nice capture Mandy. I do like your choice of DOF as well and the composition you chose works very well... now, I want to see some B&W images these or something white. Using light and shadow it will blow you away when you see it in the capture. Can't wait to see what you do next buddy.
Cheers,
Rob

If I hadn't seen the day before yesterday's, this would be my preferred one, but the other wins so far for me. Just my personal choice.
