Center crop (about 1700x 1200) from the Optio I-10 set on super macro.
 I adjusted the curves but not the sharpness.

Wow! Really nice image, Steve. I'll suggest you crop a small amount from the 
right side in order to balance it with the left, etc.. :)

Ditto Jack's remarks. You've nicely retained the detail which can be 
tough in bright yellow flowers I've found.

To be honest, I was surprised at how well the little P&S did.  The
I-10 has a reasonable lens and the macro settings actually work.  For
$110, it was a good deal.

Very nice shot. I'm impressed that you made this shot with a point and
shoot. I struggle with these when using a "real" camera and macro
lens.

Steve,
Great picture, and I just noticed it's from an Optio I-10!
Doubly impressive and great DOF with the small sensor.
Love the bug...

Me too.  I'm really surprised at the sharpness of the bug.  I really
need to just carry one of these P&S  things around.  They are capable
in capable hands, better than a cell phone and much better than
nothing.
