Bad timing right after the flowers challenge, I know! Sorry!
Post Challenge:
Cool, thanks for the votes everyone! My first top 10 for a while, I seem to be on a roll lately :) I was really lucky with this shot. I went outside into my garden, saw these all next to each other, and thought, Wow! Handy! So I grabbed the stems with 1 hand to bring them a little closer together, and shoot with the other hand. It was really windy and they were blowing about all over the place, so the composition and focus were just luck! I took a few, hoping that one would look good, and this one did, woo! :)

Cool idea. If I had done the PP on this one I would have saturated a little more, maybe even shifted the hue to make it a bit richer, but great shot nonetheless.
This idea has been shot so well, love it. Feel the eye is drawn to the un-open bud on the left though (rather than the open flower). Perhaps would have been nice if this was out of the depth of field slightly?
7 from me :o)
