Here it is framed with its ribbon! I told hubby it justifies my looking into a DSLR as soon as I get a job!

Beautiful shot...

Congratulations for a well deserved blue ribbon. It's a beautiful photo (lovely plant), I can see why it got first place ..... I find it's not easy to capture the shadows and textures on white petals the way you did .... it looks like you could reach out and touch it.
