Exif: F Number: 32, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 6/1 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II

f/32 and a 6 second exposure with a 20mm ext tube...you sure know how to do it right, my friend! Outstanding, incredible detail and the colors are magnificent - the starburst of purple, surrounded by white perfectly showcases the superb detail of stamens, anthers and stigma...be still my detail-lovin' heart! :) Excellent work, Marty! #9278717
