    Very little - just had a play around with colour balance to make more of an emphasis on the backround. The flower is as it is!! :D

    Fair play Mike. You did a great job with this. Got a macro fairly recently but have not done an awful lot yet but it brings a new dimension to the hobby.

    Good shot Mike, wait til Spring and Summer come wheeling about and you'll see why you spent that money on a macro, they just come into their own when the bugs and flowers wake up again!

    I cant remember the actual disance for that shot as I took tons that night all from various angles and distances. Closest was 5cm or so and the furthest was probably around 10cm - hope that helps!!
