Very good! I think the white background suits these flowers better than black, and it’s lovely how the light comes through the petals in the second one.

Excellent set, the first three a quite painterly, and the last stacked image has come out really well.

Thanks all for your thoughts!
I wanted to illustrate a difference in the flowers in the garden at the moment.
In full bloom, soft delicate colours, the freshness & subtlety of summer life.
In contrast to the reduction in delicacy & the intensity of the dying flower. Its colours, paradoxically, rendered
more vividly as it shrivels & dies.
White, then black backgrounds.............

Lovely soft lighting. Accentuates the delicacy of the flower. I like the black background on the wilted flower too, really makes the detail stand out.
