You manage to capture something that is soft and sharp at the same time, it is like a painting yet very precise. Nice!

I love the green and black tones. And the complete darkness in the background gives a nice effect. What light source did you use? Flash? Great macro photo and processing!

@Albert: thx Albert . NO, I never use flash . I do not like the changed colors when using it . This dandelion I picked up and have in my left hand high up to the sunlight !
