I saw this daisy greeting the sun one morning and couldn’t resist getting out my camera.

This is fascinating and gorgeous! The partially-open flower is unusual and you framed it so nicely, so that the just-opening open petals point to the more fully open ones. The colors and detail make the image a treat to explore. The light coming through the open ones is the grace note. Well done!
Beautiful! I like the way the light has back lit the far petals. The detail is just enough to give sharpness to the prominent near features.
Ann Louise: Baby gerberas are wonderful subjects, especially when caught in such good light. This looks like a very nice stacking job as well. Most excellent. >=))>
Diane, thanks so much for your comments… I had not noticed the relationship between the longer and short petals.
Just a note on my rose photo…I have been using the clone tool in a new way as you suggested, varying the opacity. What an improvement!
Kathy and Bill, thank you for your comments! I was intrigued with the sunlight showing through the top petals.
I find it wonderful to be able to share techniques and ideas!!
Very pleasing composition with the leaves encircling the Gerber flower. Sharp focus where needed and pleasing to view. Nice work.
Patricia, thank you for commenting on my Gerber Daisy photo! I had to get down very low to capture this flower just opening its petals. I have a great small tripod for these situations.
