Beautiful flowers with a nice base of leaves, and the flash diffuser works very well! Is the black spot an inadvertent brush click?

Hi Diane
Just spent half an hour searching for the originals and its on one out of three.!! Why I posted that one and didn't see it I don't know. There was no dodgibg etc done as thetre was no need to so it must have been an accidental click . cant thnik why it would be a darken brush though ??? Anyway thanks for that - at least I have one decent one in the files !!

Excellent shot John - minor faults noted apart from that lovely, that lighting is just perfect.
