Just playing around with my Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro lens, and fun textures. I don’t know what these flowers are called, but this is a new one that is just getting ready to bloom! I think it needs a little fairy sitting on top of it!

Breathtaking. It looks like a painting.
so beautiful and that texture is neat !
Wow, that second one is amazing! I love the texture, the composition, the color!
These are GORGEOUS Jewels! Absolutely STUNNING. I agree, a little fairy would be perfect perched on this bud!
Wow these are gorgeous! I adore the 2nd one… you’re right, it’s totally calling for a fairy!
Absolutely stunning!!! I love the PPing and I think you are right it does need a little fairy.
Beautiful! I could totally see a little fairy sitting on top… it’s so whimsical looking!
These are lovely, especially the second one! I love the vintage feel they have with the textures. I think I need to try this technique on some of my macros and see if I can get anything near as nice as yours
The color and texture is awesome!
That flower is simply beautiful! You’re right. It just needs a fairy sitting on top of it. I love the way you used textures, too.
Beautiful! They look like paintings, and I agree a fairy would be just right!

I like the second one best…I can’t really tell what the first one is, although could be a cool abstract piece. Aren’t textures fun?
Very nice texture love the color.
I love this! And a fairy would be perfect. I love the texture and the soft, appealing, ethereal colors of this.
Ooooh, these are absolutely gorgeous! Love the colors, and well everything about them! I wish we had flowers blooming up here… just more snow falling

Very pretty. I like that second one, it does look like a painting.
I agree these shots look great. The background really helps the flower to stand out. Nicely done.

Thanks for all the lovely comments!
For the textures, one I downloaded from deviant art (the 2nd photo), and I don’t even remember where or how I found it. It was over a year ago, and the 1st one was from Texture King, there is a link to it if you go a couple posts down here:

THANK YOU APRIL for those links!
She was one who initially inspired me to use texture over flowers!
those look awesome. i actually saw that first one and thought that the texture looked like the one i used. it looks awesome on your picture. you are so very welcome for the link. i’m glad you like them.
Oh, Julie! That 2nd one is to die for!!!
Love these jewels! I really love the 2nd one, but I love the quirkiness and unexpectedness (does that even make sense? LOL!) of the 1st one.
Awesome. I love the textures.
