Ok - as promised, here is the calm flower photo to make up for yesterday's spider shots...

Technical Data: Canon EOS 7D, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM, 1/250 sec at f/2.8. Canon Speedlight 580EX II flash in auto mode and wireless control. Image Stabilization on. ISO 400. RAW processing in Adobe Camera Raw.

I took several different exposures of this shot, but I really like the almost dreamy feel that this one has because of the extremely wide aperture (f/2.8). Drop me a comment and let me know what you think.
