[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This fireweed was taken on the shore of Kluane Lake.

Thanks to Vinster. He identified the plant.

For the technique, I use a Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 with a 50mm f/1.4 inversed on the front of the macro lens. It's my first try. I think is good.

The day was sunny.

You got and awesome graphic shot!
I like a lot the abstract look of the picture, as well as the vibrant colours on it.
Details on the front element makes the image even more interesting.
