Natural early morning sunlight filtering through the petals makes the bloom almost look like it has its own light source at the base.

Thank you very much, Jude 🙂 I managed to get down quite low to the flower and caught it at the right angle to the rising sun. Just experimenting really, and I was quite pleased with the outcome 🙂

Me too. I like that you can see their veins. It gives the photo a feeling that you can’t capture when the sun isn’t shining through them.
