WOW!!!!!! Few things as lovely as a macro of a delicate poppy. You've captured everything that is beautiful about them - the papery petals, the gorgeous purple centers...exceptional work. F/V

Beautiful and Great detail.-----------------Anand

it is very beautiful Michael, but as you say, short lived... you've got to paint them to perserve them...
