Pretty in Pink

Not really a macro, but definitely a close-up - and no bugs on it either! This was in my garden when I was wandering about with the camera in hand (again...). I'm not happy with the blown-out highlights, that happened when I viewed the original online, and it was too dark, played around with it, but took it a bit too far...grrrr.

Hi guys!
This year I'll be putting up fewer shots, but hopefully improving the quality at the same time. Sort of a 'best of' if you like.
This community is terrific in so many ways - I love it even if I don't often comment. The people on here make it a great place to be.
I'm also writing a health-related blog - if you're interested, hop on over to http://healthskills.wordpress.com/
and make yourself known!
