Thanks Steve. The Sigma is an incredible lens. I love my 50 and my 105. The 105 is definitely great for larger things, like flowers, since it makes it easier to get more in focus.

Ha! Didn't your mother tell you not to play with your food!

Great shot, it almost looks like coral.

Stunning photo, the soft reflection on the pistil and the beautiful backlighting are great! I would like to see the same shot with the pistil/stamen a little more in the topleft of the frame to see a little more of the backlit petals.

Thanks again for all the great feedback!

For boyd2000, the background is lit with a snooted SB-600
The flower is backlit with another snooted SB-600 and an frontlit with an SB-800 in a softbox
I think there was also a piece of white paper as a reflector under the flower

Thanks for all the great comments!

There actually isn't any vignetting, it's done with a lighted background.
