My favorite flower · 12:45 PM

My favourite flower photo off the last few months, made in the greenhouse off the "Botanische Tuinen Utrecht". No wind, great light and all the time in the world. Perfect macro conditions when this fragile sun kissed flower caught my eye, Not a rare exotic specimen but great on the day imho.

I like the selective DOF.

Quite beautiful. Like the dark background and the shallow Dof.
