BG is black construction paper. Shot indoors with east facing window light.
Rotated, cropped, curves, contrast boost. Cleaned up some blemishes on the flower.

Very nice composition. I might even push the glow even more by adding a backlight out of frame.

Real nice presentation here Ken. Love the black BG. You inspired me to post one of my black BG lily's.

Hi Ken. A nice, simple comp, well lit, and the black background works well. Nicely done.

Glorious! It doesn't hurt that blue is my favorite color. Love the simple composition, the BG, the lovely light, everything. Wow! I'm surprised construction paper was black enough. Good work.

Officially it was called poster board but since it was 2 sheets for $1 from Dollar Tree, it's really just construction paper. When I use black, I angle it away from the light source so essentially it's in shadow which helps a lot. :S3:
