Absolutely brilliant Jen!! LOVE lOVe LoVE this!! love it... did I mention I think this is great? Hmmm... you know, if I hadn't mentioned it, I do think you did a brilliant job... ;-) But why is your camera set to ISO 400?

@amy: You are too much!!!! : ) I had a feeling you might like this.
mmmm??? good question, I thought I had it set on auto! I have been playing with the settings but seem to land at auto alot! Can't wait for my photography class in March to clear a few things up for me! ; )

Beautiful, Beautiful Jen! This flower that has emerged is so pretty and so much detail against the out of focus background - you have such a way with flower shots! :-()

Absolutely exquisitely heart-stoppingly beautiful. Truly. Heartfelt thank you too for your very kind words at my blog, dear Jen. I very much appreciate your kindness. I'm sorry at not being able to stop by regularly nowadays. Your photoblog is one of my favourites that I can't help but love, and very much miss on the many days I'm not able to visit. Blessings always to you and yours.

@Rebecca: Thank you Rebecca...hope all is well with you...take care!

akarui from Kagoshima, Japan

Beautiful macro. Colors and the blur background are very nice. You may think again the composition, I am not sure what would be better...just try different crops or compare with other shots. I like it anyway.

Simply gorgeous. Love the composition, the detail, and most especially the background. I especially love the bottom right corner where there's a splash of lavender against the blue and green hues.
