Back to something more usual today perhaps!

Echinopsis x 'Tango'

The last three frames of a stack of 8 I took.

Nikon D800E/200f4micro/cpl
ISO 100 1/25 f/13


Again, best viewed on black.
Thanks!

Another good one, Dave. I am a big fan of that foreground wash. Sweet capture with just the right amount in focus.

Excellent closeup. Beautiful colors and the DOF choice does lovely things with the encircling anthers.

All the best

Reminds me of the old candyfloss/cotton candy machines. Pour in the sugar and the colours, and then spin to form the strands and clouds of spun sugar! Lovely colour and composition, with a nice balance between softness and sharp detail.
