Very nice, lovely sharp detail in the petals and excellent contrasts too.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked those points. I set up a little studio to shoot that, using a white background and natural light. I was going to brighten the reds some, but I liked the way it looked right out of the camera.

Is that right? 25/10 - two and a half second exposure? Damn steady hand you have.

Yep that is indeed correct sir! However, I used a tripod for this one, you practically have too at those slow speeds, but i have done some handheld work as slow as that before.

The teenager in me clamoured to be allowed to answer with some smutty quip about slow handheld work, but fortunately he was grounded by my adult side, who sent straight to his room.

age and sensibility = old fart

My hand sucks at being steady though, so I am forced more often than not to use a tripod and I still don't use it often enough.
