Shot in the studio using two diffused flash heads. Flower taken from the garden this afternoon. Black backdrop is a velvet portrait back against the wall.

The subject with its wild appearance is a treat, Rob - very well captured with lots of nice detail.

Rob - We call this Corn Flower here. Excellent lighting that shows off, all the details. Dark Background works well, even though I attempt to look for yellows when shooting Blue-ish flowers !

Precision detail throughout. The black background really makes this pop. I do wish you would look at some other color, maybe even a gradient. Give it a try and see what you think. I have no problem with the black, but it never hurts to experiment.
