Lovely tones, but I agree that it would be interesting to see it shot with the bamboo in the background rather than the sky

Very nice! I love that you found 'unusual' flowers to shoot. They look marvelous with the herbs in the orange bowl. The blown background is acceptable in food shots, you are technically shooting food here, so I don't mind it. ;)
I also found the bamboo interesting.

Absolutely correct, squash has beautiful flowers and from what I understand they are quite tasty in their own right also.
Great composition and love the earthy feel to your shot. Very natural.

First time I see squash blossoms. Love the orange tones and the bowl/vase matches quite nicely.

What a warm lovely still life you have here, and sharing with us. At first I thought they were pumpkin flowers, but see they are squash flowers and very similar.
The DOF, along with the balanced focused areas, work so well together with this floral image.

Thanks you for sharing this floral image with us.
