that would be an unwise thing for this controlled alcoholic to do but you had no way of knowing so thanks for the good thoughts.

Belated birthday greetings Brian, I hope you've had a great day.

I truly did.

Belated Happy Birthday wishes to you Brian,

I agree about the stem exiting top of frame - I'd also like to see another +2/3 stop exposure though - just a little dim, especially for a birthday celebration.

I posted another shot of the same flower. Very different look, a little brighter and the exiting stem was changed as well.
