Great shot. I love flower macros and nature abstracts.

I just got a macro lens for my camera - now I need to learn how to use it!

thanks for the and comment. I took this with my old camera. The new one requires an interchangeable macro lens so won't be able to take any of those in the near future!

How gorgeous and what a fantastic idea to give us this perspective of how an insect would see this!! It looks like an abstract painting

I like the perspective of this shot. For some reason, this photo reminds me of looking into the curves of a nautilus shell.

you ever see those shots of desert ravines, narrow, with flowing, striated rock? This is a like a floral version of that, very cool. Tulip cave.

It's done pretty well as far as i can see. I don't think it really matters how many hits it gets, it's just an added bonus really
