    Wow! A beautifully composed image. Great work on the focus stacking and lovely black and white edit. No shred from me!

    I love how artfully you have composed the frame, Lianne. There’s a lot of balance that gets created  even with the negative space because of the POV you’ve chosen. The flower itself is delicate but with the light and shadows you’ve used, you’ve created a lot of textures for me to admire. Very impressive given it’s your first attempt at Stacking. A beautiful entry, well done!

    Oh wow! Awesome photo and the edit.  Can't believe this is your first attempt at stacking. I would love to learn at some point.
