A perfect rose

I didn't think I was capable of taking a shot like this.  I started with a beautiful flower just at its peak of bloom, and then I was able to capture it in a way that makes me very happy.  I'm so excited - I have real hope now for my future as a blipper.  Having done this, I am now off for a nap - I had a flu shot this afternoon (yes, they're here already) and it has knocked me right out.
