Beautiful low lit capture, Deb, of this wild beauty so nicely exposed and detailed. I love the unique design of the petals and stamen as well as your beauty of color. Great tight composition.

A very beautiful picture of this strange looking flower. The fact that it was taken at night shows the delicacy of the petals; and the color in the center is just gorgeous.
Great shot, thank you!

Comment from Sange
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
How lovely for you to have its Misty Loveliness Grace your gardens Doc.
Your skill behind your lens shows off the delicate airy appearance with finely divided petals.
White balance is controlled PERFECTLY!
I love the soft paper/silky like texture and the horned seed capsules in the center.
Superb camera techs.
A graceful addition to your magical Painting in which you live.
Bravo Doc!

The best thing about this guy (well except for that wonderful seed head Sange) is it's soft paper/silky like texture. Nice way to describe it btw....lol I love thinking about my little place here as my 'magical painting' It truly is you know. Although I DID start doing the big 'cut down' today....boo-hoo....could almost cry...but that is life in Doc's magical little painting.
Anyway, this was the nicest review to find here this evening. Got a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!....a 'Bravo' AND a gold star! Thank you so much for all of it....and a really marvelous review as well. Big smile in the land of Doc.

Comment from Trajan
Stunning image!
The requisite detail really makes this into a great shot. You can see all the final textures and colors. I could do a sculpture based upon this alone!
The way the deep purple draws the eye to the center and them outward again.
Really awesome!

How flattering Trajan....I have never had anyone say they could do a sculpture based on one of my images...now THAT is talent. Anyway, I do really appreciate you having a look at my new piece and thank you so much for the really wonderful review.
