That is just BEAUTIFUL Jim. The stigmas and styles look similar to a false-coloured elctron micrograph picture. Lovely colour combination.

Happy 4th.
This is stunning. I have envisioned this very image but, none of the poppies that I have found we anywhere near this lovely. Excellent work.
Thanks for posting,

Wow! What strong colors. You can almost feel the texture of the center of the poppy. Thanks for sharing.

Now this really hits you in the face with its beauty!
Excellent details, color, comp, and the center almost looks as if it has some frost on it. Very cool!!! 8)
