Not sure what to make of this image I was out photographing and the sun was strong We were using diffusers for bugs and flowers but thought I wanted something different
Exposing for the flower would make the sky high key I ended up with what I had in mind Any thoughts I'm more a bug person but do enjoy flowers
Comments welcome and much appreciated

High key done well and the two leaves form a nice curve between the petals. The sudden drop off of color on the bottom of the stem seems a little off to me. Nice coloring overall
I love it like this but agree on the disappearing stalk. Would love to see it with a thin green stroke around it.
later and love, artie
