Hi~ I didn't use the flash, and as for the effects around the petal edges, this was a puzzler to me... I assume the things you mention above (marquee, feathered) are PS tools? I have yet to start using the PhotoShop! Looking at what limited processing I did do, can anyone give me a clue as to why the "halo" effect occurred? just curious..I actually like this photgraph a lot, but as I say, was puzzled by this effect...

Thanks a lot for the nice comments!
