This is for the challenge, I used my macro lens and I wanted to post one more that I was using lights off camera to back light this.

  Very nice, Beth. I like the backlit one, though a little fill light would be an improvement.

  One of my favorite flowers, Beth. Would like to see the backlit one opened up a bit as Jeff suggested.

Thanks Dale, I lightened up the areas first used shadows and highlights, and then did a layer and dodges some areas.
I always try and start one in November and this one bloomed right about Christmas and actually bloomed twice, now it is done.
I used the table top tent and lights Rocky got me for Christmas, used it again today for some other things and I hope to post them soon.
