The odd things is that none of my favorites are taken with my voigtlander, which is by far my favorite lens. I really need to give that thing more use.

This exposure suggests a painterly effect. If so inclined, please describe your technique here. It sure flatters this flower.
In truth this was one of the first photos took and has always been a favourite. As I remember it's pretty much as it came out of the camera. 24-105, 105mm @f/11 w flash. A bit of sharpening and clone out a blemish on one petal. Thanks for looking.
One final thought. I'm sure I under exposed significantly and adjusted a bit in curves. To me the vast majority of posies seem overexposed.
