Really nice red flower EM. I still have problems getting my reds to work right. Oh, and I just bought a manual 90mm Macro lens this week. Tamron is the brand. Now I just need you to tell me how you get those reds to stay red.

Not sure which program you use for PP but I use CS6 and what I do is increase the contrast and drop back the brightness until I feel the red looks as it should. Of course removal of any noise helps this process.

I use Photoshop Elements 11 now but was using Photoshop Elements 9. Next red flower I shoot, I'll try what you do. Thanks EM, appreciate you sharing your expertise.
