These flowers appear every June in profusion in my garden – the macro lens got me closer this year than ever before.  I did not realise that the centre of the flower was so complex.  If you zoom in you can even see the balls of pollen on the stamen.  This shot taken using my adapted light tent and the bloom isolated on white.  No other processing performed.
