Very nice Robert! I like the dark BG, and the lighting is great. How did you arrange these blooms in your kitchen this way? Did you buy them planted or did you dig them up?

Nice arrangement, great color and good use of the dark bg. Is this natural light from a window? BTW, the larger image looks the same size as this.

Usually I like better low satureted images but here the vivid colors against the blackboard make the photo and I love it.
You must have a very kind wife who allows you to buil a studio in the kitchen; mine woud'nt!
Take care.

Nathan, I bought this potted flowers for our preacher's mother who is ill, and had a little time with it.
Michael, I used a 5-into-1 diffuser/reflector, and the light was spill over from a window.

Those a bursting full and terrific tulips! I like the black and lighting. I might squeeze them together a bit more and zoom in to see the petal detail more …esp to better taste the light glowing and shadows between petals.

Robert:

The vibrant color and dark bg really makes this image pop. Nice lighting as well.

There is just 2 minor nits for me; the arrangement looks just a little too clinical and the petal of the right lower bloom going out to the edge of the frame.

Hi Robert

Well composed with a very spectacular array of color and light.

I like the collection of blooms and especially the side lighting that has some of the leaves glowing so nicely.

Excellent use of the side lighting, and the beautiful colors pop on the black.
Well done Robert
