For me, this is an absolute yes. At risk of sounding like a judge from America's got Talent.
This is very nicely done. Outstanding technical understanding of exposure and composition. Clean.
Really nice. 5 stars. One of the best flower images I've seen. Sharp with soft. Masterful use of light.
This is how it's done.

I am envious.

Edit - On a side note I am dying to have a K1 MkII. I feel like I have progressed to the point of actually being able to put it to good use.
But I may be wrong, because I know if you give a lousy painter the best brushes, he will still be a lousy painter. And I'm not that good.
I just keep thinking what I could do, and the possibility of 36MP, and a larger sensor, compared to what I'm using 16MP and a crop sensor.
I sure would like to have it. It could be the difference in making an average painter, not great, but better.

I'm only a hobbyist as far as photography goes And I'm still using a K1, never upgraded to a K!ii
