Excellent photo Jim, lovely rich saturated colours and I like the very limited depth of field on this subject.

this is a very special shot with a great usage of DOF - also very eye-catching colors - the red is really grabbing all the attention.....

Super shot. I like this kind of shallow focus effect.
Best wishes,

I like the nice colours and the shallow DOF. This is a well taken macro shot, Jim.
