 Dogwood blossoms on the capitol grounds.

(stupid jaggies - the petals could use the sharpening, but the branches against the white look terrible; ah, basic editing)

Congratulations!
You are the recipient of my comment no. 1000 - and I'm very pleased to tell you that it will be a positive comment.

This is a very beautiful shot - IMO it's by far the best of all the flower shots in the challenge. You've manged to control the light and avoid extreme burnouts in the highlights and you've been able to preserve some detail in the flowers as well.

For this I'll give you an 8 for now...
