Excellent! Like all members of the leucospermums difficult to capture. Very well done Jaco. Glorious colours and details. They grow extremely well in Western Australia and provide an export business for quite a number of flower farms. TFS,

I'm a HUGE fan of marco photography. This photo makes me speechless: the detail, clarity and color. Wonderful. TFS.

Hello Jaco,
This one caught my eye in the thumbnail because of the lines...
Full size I see a lot of interesting details, those hairs are very well captured!
Well composed image with colours and lines to make it really stand out!
