[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Another flower shot! I took this when testing out my new Sigma 70mm Macro lens. I took a number of shots (including some macro ones!) but this was my favourite. I know its an unusual crop, but I think it works pretty well - you may or may not agree with me!

The original crop was slightly tighter but I extended the canvas because I thought it increased the impact of the image, again - you may or may not agree!

Anyway - enjoy!

Hi Kristian,

Hello Kristian, the shot is quite striking with the sharp contrast between the white petals and the black bg.It is an unusual macro shot of a flower and I like it a lot, well done.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Kris,
A very striking composition of this macro. Placing the lily off centre like this adds lots of drama and tension.
Superb colour, detail and sharpness.
The stamens are a real feature.
That new macro lens is in good hands.
Regards, Joni
