Love the flowers gorgeous fine details, purely personal but the background doesn't ring my bell.

Excellent image. Very artistic. Nice play of lights and shadows. Like the dark BG and great composition.

Regards,
Satish.

Gorgeous!! Wonderful lighting and sharp details.

I'm not usually a fan of black BGs but it works well here.

Nicely done. Light on the flowers is very good and details showing off nicely!

Would prefer a lighter BG but not a big deal!

john, I'm not exactly a fan of dark BG, but this work well. I should like to imagine the subject with a shallow DOF. Could you repeat the capture?

[John Robinson]

Valerio
Thanks. Not sure what you mean. Do you mean pick one flower out of the three?
Cheers

In every image I see I try to fancy whether there are other options of the same image. With a shallow DOF the image should be focused only partially, it could be an art option. Cheers.
