Well, .............. it reminded me of a jewel anyway! :)

Could I have moved a bit one way or the other to get this little flower more into the frame, I don't think I would have done so.
The reason? I just wanted it to be different than most that I have seen!

Just poke the lens into the bushes, follow along the stems, and soon you will find something to shoot!
For some reason, the ever so slight grain in the raw file from shooting at 400 really showed up more when sized for the web but in others it did not.

Canon Rebel 300D
Canon IS 75-300mm with extension tube
Handheld & natural light
1/250 sec. @ f5
ISO 400
Levels/curves in PS - USM

Thanks for looking everyone,
Mike

I like it, and I like the "different" approach, too.

Sweet image in its simplicity but makes a very strong picture.
