Thank you Helene and Julia -- the shot was done with a 70-200mm F4 L lens @ 200? (or around there). As far as the exposure, it was easy -- it's a cloudy day, diffused light and shot around 6 pm or later, in fact, I need to use a tripod as the light was dim enough even at ISO 400! I tend not to dodge or burn, as it tends to introduce noises especially from the shadow areas. I think i just used -1/3 or -2/3 exposure and evaluative metering to hold back the exposure, and some slight adjustment in photoshop. Two of the petal is a bit soft, but I think that's either DOF issue because I shot at F8 or because of motion of the flower petals. I have another shot i'll post tonight.

wow...impressive, to say the least. I'd like to know your exposure time and such on this. Did you get a new macro lens? Simply beautiful.

Perfect exposure. I have been studying the brightest petal to see whether you burned it but don't detect any signs of it :) That's pretty impressive. Lovely composition and colors as well.
