This is the downy bud of a four-nerve daisy, Tetraneuris linearifolia, as it begins opening into a flower head. Although this photograph looks like it was shot in a studio or with an artificial background, I took the picture outdoors, using nearby shaded trees as a natural backdrop.
I've been involved with photography since the late 1960s, when I got my first real camera toward the end of my two years in Honduras as a Peace Corps math teacher. From the 1970s through the mid-1980s I went through a phase of black and white infrared photography, often even in 3-D. My current period began in 1999.

Fantastic portrait of this four-nerve daisy! Love the incredible detail and DOF! V/F
Steven Schwartzman replied:
