Probably not the best move submitting this right after the flora(l) challenge.
Lit by two 430EX at full power to accommodate the extreme aperture and give a quasi- high key look. I pushed the highlights a tad in post as there was still some detail left in the white petals of the flower. Probably get some comments wishing for 'more detail' in those areas, but it just added some unwelcome roughness to the shot so it got the axe.
Took longer to clone out the sensor dust that showed up than to setup and take the shot.
B/W outtake (with petal detail showing):

Love the pure white silky look. Very nice clarity and sharpness right on. Also like the composition. Nice job. Also love the little face on the right side of the flower. Looks like this..... :|
