Swathiraj - I like those Carnations with dark colored edges on the petals. Like the layered effect and nice lighting.
This experiment is certainly worth continuing. I'd look into making the stem somewhat visible (or else a top down into the flower approach), not clipping the 2nd bloom, may be try for 3 blooms with implied triangle etc etc. Good Luck.

Very nice, Swathiraj. Beautiful plus a sense of mystery. Like Ram, I'd prefer to see the stems and maybe just a bit more lighting on the lower right flower.

Beautiful image. I really like the colors and the water drops add to the image. I like the black background, it makes the flowers stand out.

I like the shape and texture to the petals. I also like the negative space and light. To me, the comp is not quite working - with the two blooms being somewhat disconnected from one another. There are things that I like but for me the photo overall is not working.

Very neat concept. Very good lighting and the water drops are a nice addition. I would like to see the second blossom completely, though.

I like the light and composition as is Swathiraj. Really great affects in my opinion.
