I love the myriad of tones you were able to capture in this shot; it gives this incredible sense of depth to an already very 3-dimensional flower. I've always loved the multiple layers of dahlia petals...
Thanks! The naturally saturated colors in flower cultivars are always great fun for photography, since they can have such deep contrast even before retouching which makes it easy to get fairly striking results.
