I took this shot the other day though I don't know what type of flower it is I love it.
I did not have a macro lens for this shot.

Looks like a carnation to me. I like the photo. :) If you want to look for other flowers which have a lot of layers, they are usually called "double" or "peony". Peony is a flower in it's own right, but the word is used as a modifier for other flowers, such as peony poppies and peony-flowered tulips. English roses are another type of flower known for having many many layers of petals. Chrysanthemums also, and I saw a double shasta the other day called "showstopper" which was just bred recently. Daffodils, lilies, clematis, helleborus, and many other types of flowers have lovely double varieties.
