Description Updated watermark 02-08-09.

I just really love this shot, for some reason.

An apology - I uploaded this with the pistil description a moment ago, so if you've already viewed this - my bad... That image has been changed to match it's description at this point. Trying to hurry...no good!

Shot using Pentax K110D, with macro and UV (C-PL) filter on 18-55mm lens, at -1.0 EV.

Post work:
-slight crop
-slight vignetting
-border and watermark

Full view is better, I'm sure.
