Orange Burst - a photo on Flickriver

Orange Burst

Japanse Azalea (Rhododendron Japonicum)

This is my first attempt to use the reverse lens technique. I'm not sure what the magnification is, but I'm guessing it's more than 4:1. The colors pop when viewed on black.

Setup: 55mm f/2.8 Micro AIS + 105mm f/2.8G Micro VR

Shoutout: I'd like to thank my kid brother for making me a custom WB diffuser panel -- would have cost me $100 to get an Expodisc. Also used it for the first time with this shot. It's perfect, bro. The histogram is always on the mark.
