Where are you that you have plants like this? If you're in bright sunlight I highly recommend using exposure compensation to under expose by up to a stop if things are getting wiped out. Give it a try, it really works and let me know how you do I'd love to see your efforts. Ernie: Wow, fantastic. Where are you that you have plants like this?

Everything came out overexposed. Maybe I'll try again next weekend. I stumbled across some of these this weekend, but it was later in the afternoon so I was hot and tired.

You should be shooting those. Ernie: The whole thing (with bugs) sounds like a great photograph. You should be shooting those.

Each of the little hair-like pins between the petal parts has a knob at the end, though. I don't know what they are called, either, but when I find them they are usually covered in bugs that I have to brush off.
