Hi Martyn,
Nice flower, very good POV, lighting and framing. The blurred BG is a bit disturbing.
Best wishes,
Raimundo

Hi Martyn,
Fantastic exposure, nice black and white tones. The partial desaturation was a good idea, it highlights the flower of this cactus very well. Excellent DOF, sharp subject. Well done, my friend! TFS.
Greetings,
Kristof

Fine capture but it looks as though you pointed the camera to far to the left.
