I think the colors in this image are so pretty and nicely exposed. The clarity is sharp, showing off the fine details of the center so well. I like seeing the tiny specks of pollen dust on the flower petals too. The tight crop gives a wonderful view.

This so reminds me of a Georgia O'Keefe painting. I love the stamens with their bright yellow pollen filled anthers. The delicate veining in the petals creates a sense of softness. Lovely!
