This looks like you've rather overcooked the image with too much sharpening. I dont think you needed quite as much and a softer one would be more effective

Keith- Actually I didn't use USM or saturation at all- the only PS work was changing the background to black. The Sigma 50mm Macro is very sharp, and the long exposure in mostly natural light may have added to the sharply detailed effect.

I've gone away...come back... had another look and can see that it's crisp and not really TOO Sharp. Must be these old eyes of mine or get the specs/monitor/everything changed.

Outstanding shot, David. Perfectly sharp and wonderful saturation. You also did a nice job with the background, I don't see any side effects on the edges of the petals. Nice work! Chris

This reminds me of one of those old botanical illustrations found in science books because the detail is amazing. I took a look at your portfolio and was surprised to find that there weren't more florals, this one gave me the impression that you were an old hand at this sort of photography. I think you should explore this softer side more often. In addition to the detail and clever lighting, the composition/crop is what makes this so successful in my estimation. Nothing important is missing, there is just a bit of air all around the amaryllis and that wonderful strong green stem is both an anchor and a bright spot of color to give the image vibrancy. Green and red - I think this would make a terrific Christmas card. I grew a red amaryllis on my window sill once but it grew so fast and got so tall it fell over. I like this a lot!
