 I wish I could have gotten more detail in the "cup" of the Daffodil, but the faster shutter speed is would provided me with the dramatic effect to the bulb in the background. I guess we are never satisfied.
Lighting was fantastic yesterday morning after it finished raining. This is a single image with the contrast and black point adjusted to create the dramatic effect. Not sure how this will be received......because I never am:)

love it, but missing a bit more focus in the center of the flower (the yellowish part).

That yellow thing in the background feels a bit out of place. Also a slightly wider DOF might have been nice.
