Wow... I looked at the picture and that's all I could think - wow. The shading is AMAZING. I am truly in awe of this picture - I think it might be the best yet.

I hope I'm not underselling your work by saying this, because that's certainly not my intention, but this photo resembles a meticulously-painted watercolor. For some reason I find the warm color of the petals and the shading underneath so vivid that it seems too strong to be a photograph. Beautiful work, and kudos to you for documenting flora from a seldom-seen angle.
