Thought I better get this one out of the way, its been there months.
Unfortunately, the fine detail doesnt seem to want to be compressed, so it looks a bit weird...

This image was specifically created for a Personal Project created by our project randomiser. This photo was created using the following randomly chosen criteria:

Theme: Flowers
Light: Natural Light
Focal Distance: Macro
Location: Outdoors (Night)
Colour Type: Colour

Hi Merv, this was a challenge 'Natural Light at Night'. Well you have pulled it off, although maybe a slightly darker background would have been more suitable to get the nightime look. And Flower seems to fit the subject well and being close up is your Macro shot. So everything has it's tick. Well done.

I should think that you had some nice reflections in those water droplets, but as you said this has been lost in the compression of this image.

You give it too much credit Barry

It's not great full size and I got the exposure way out so I pushed it a lot in PS to get anything out of it, at least the criteria are met as you say.

14 secs exposure!?
Fair play to you mate. I think you did a grand job. And hand held too!!!??

Seriously mate even though you pushed it in p/shopp you still fulfilled the task with flyinf colours.
