LURVE this. Something about the way those petals bend down, almost like graceful dancers' arms.

The black background is, I dunno, unexpected with the gorgeous lighting. Very nice!

Glad to see you are enjoying this side challenge. I like the idea of trying to think creatively about what the camera can do. What is amazing is how good these images look! I think you image here, while not as sharp as a tripod ISO 100 shot, has a bit of character to it. Your colors are well saturated, and the grain adds something.

Oh this is magical! That lighting in the upper left combined with the warm glow of the yellow works together wonderfully. Lovely shot!
