I shot this with the ever lovely FA*200/4 macro. I wanted a slightly softer look, so I stopped down to f/32 to let the mild diffraction I would get at that aperture work it's magic . I stacked 18 images, which was overkill for that aperture.

The very definition of beautiful. A wonderful shot.

Beautiful flower! The shot has it all: soft color, nice detail and that 3d look! Thanks for sharing.
Best.
