Beautifully done Gene. Sweet, easy on the eye and good use of stacking.

Thanks David,  I don't know much about macro, so I'm still approaching macro like bird photography.  I hope to develop a more artistic approach with experience.

Two happy-looking flowers. :). Nice bright colors. Bottom flower maybe a bit close to the bottom if you were to frame this. Maybe give it a bit more space. Glad to see you playing with Macro. I'm just learning too- have not stacked anything yet, though.

Cynthia, Thanks for the suggestions.  Looking at the image now, I agree that I should have taken the image in a portrait format which would have offered a more natural perspective while keeping the flowers large in the frame.

Very cheery. The backlight makes them electric.

Great job.
