Hello Waldemar,
You achieved a surprisingly (aperture f/4)overall sharp Musk thistle. This is very good.
If you crop the image a centimeter or so at the right-hand-side the flower will be in the center of the image? No?;-)
Thanks for sharing
Annick:-)

Bonjour Waldemar,
Présentation originale finement détaillée et délicatement colorée.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
