Thank you all for your comments. This was my first submission; finally I got myself to do something to get over the hump.

The stamens are well composed and exposed. Macro does not allow more DoF - so a pat on the back.

Nice detail in the image, good use of DOF.. bumping to 9

Nice detail colour and focus

now THIS is a good flower one. a bit trite this round, but who cares? this photo is enchanting. 10!

Would of loved to see a larger DOF since the peddles of the flower takes up 90% of the photograph.

nice color.

Very fine picture, but I think it would have been even better had you cropped out the top 20% of the picture not only to focus on the stamens, which are the point of the contest, but to improve compositional balance.

beautiful

Good one. Nice color and definition. Can be hard to get...

No deny...good to see such. Good luck.

If the title was "Flower" or whatever - this would've been a "part". When you named it "stamen", actualy we can see the whole stamen, not its part. But on the other hand I know, the topic wasn't described clearly :) The colours and composition is good. Maybe a bit tooo much blur in the background, but I'm not sure. 6.

Love the color and focus but the dimensions look like it was cropped.

This is a great picture,I grow over 400 varities of daylilies myself I take a lot of close up shots with insects on them.

nice macro, like the colors, especially the underside of stamens which your good crop brings my eyes to.
