Lantana, Side View

@bluechameleon: I was experimenting with my pop-up flash. It's interesting how much control you get over the lighting --from ambient supplemented by flash all the way up to full flash.

@lisa v: Thank you. Did a little reading about the fires there this morning --incredible. Hope you're doing well.

@Daryl: The black background is solely the creation of the aperture/light combination.

@Julian Kilsby: Thank you. I was experimenting with flash --something I need to do a lot more of.

@VEERLE TIJTGAT: Thank you.

@Sarito: Thank you. The background is created by the flash/aperture combination.

@danthro: Thought I'd experiment a little with my pop-up flash.

@grant: Tiny little flowers about 1/8" in diameter.

@Eleftheria: Thank you very much. I was experimenting with my macro lens and pop-up flash.
