Flower glow

Another of these flowers... they are quite compulsive with their detailed centres! I had to meter off the centre to get the detail, so the rest saturated and looks like it is glowing :)
I got several good pics from our trip to Daylesford Botanic Gardens today, so I'll share some of the others in my second album for the next few days...

(looks best on black too - please view large if you have chance)

Best wishes for 2014 to everyone from me and the feathered ones :)
