This is my attempt at Macro image of a yellow cactus flower at the local greenhouse.

Sandy,
Looks very beautifil...I think you have flowers nailed down really well.
As I have mentioned before you have the talent to "see" something before you shoot it. That is the area that I am struggling with! Each of us on PP have different strengths and weaknesses in different areas. Thankyou for your contributions!

Thank you Matt for your very kind comments although you give me way too much credit for my work with flowers, as I have not done enough to know all the pitfalls.
I am learning by trial and error and so appreciate the feedback.

Wonderful combination of colours Sandy - really striking flower.

Thank you so much Denise! I guess I understand why everyone at the greenhouse was talking about the yellow cactus!

Very nice Sandy. I have many shots of orange/red ones, but have not seen a yellow one.

[DoctorJazz]

Thank you so much Kaye!
I'm glad I was there to catch the bloom!

Beautiful picture Sandy, love the colour. I don't have a macro lens yet, so everytime I do macro, I use my compact camera :D

Thank you Tenny! I am always amazed at how much more the camera sees than we do! Many thanks for your comments.

Hi Sandy, my apologies for missing this one.
What a great shot, the yellow against the blue sky just works so well.
Excellent Sandy
