WOW< it IS perfect. I like the nice bright exposure too. When out in bright sunlight it's supposed to be bright, yet a lot of the time we tend to underexpose it a bit to keep the highlights. The D300 did an AMAZING job here. I don't see any loss of highlight detail at all and yet the darker areas (the stems) have good detail. I assume you did some editing on this to get both the highlights and shadows both so well balanced? And a brilliant job of it you did!
