Well, I did warn you up front that lenses with “Macro” in the name tend to be instruments of photographic blossom abuse; in this case, of an early and rather wet rhododendron.
Yes, it really was that pink. I have applied no color-correction nor contrast crankage, aside from darkening the background a bit.
I brought the new lens down to the Googleplex this week but it remained holstered today as a consequence of having spent five-plus hours in meetings, most Google-IO-related.
