Morning Glory

I liked the lighting on this Morning Glory.  It seemed to glow against the dark background.  I darkened the background even more during post processing.

Canon 60D,  Canon 15-85@85mm, f/16, 1/100, ISO800

I appreciate all comments and critiques.

It looks as if there is a light source at the base of the flower.  I like the dark background. Very well composed and presented.devil

This is lovely, Barb. I like the glow, too, and the dark background helps to highlight the blue and white. The stem is also a nice addition and the buds point up to the flower, making it a very harmonious image.
