Wow! You know how to get those lantanas.
Low light seems to be the best way to catch all the tiny intricate details without blowing the lighter parts. This shot really got the image; and I've been trying to do it for a long time, but without the success you have here!
Good one!
Angky.

Thanks so much Angky! I tend to underexpose flowers like this to make sure that I capture all of their fine details and textures.
