2 leaved trillium?

Thank you! :) It turned out way better than I ever thought it would. :)
I was experimenting with some exposure ideas that I had and trying to take a photo of one of my wife's favorite wild flowers....... The Trillium. I noticed this odd ball Trillium that only has 2 petals instead of the normal 3. It was stuck in a dark corner under a tree and a bunch of brush, so I got down on my belly and crawled back to it with my trusty 17-40 f/4 L and I tried out my exposure ide.

Camera Maker: Canon

Lens: EF17-40mm f/4L USM
Image Date: 2011-04-12 15:07:39 -0700
Focal Length: 40.0mm
Aperture: f/4.0
Exposure Time: 0.0020 s (1/500)

Everything worked out pretty good and my wife loves the photo! :)
