Still waiting for spring here, have seen signs lately some buds and found two flowers though they were very tiny but there is hope!!! This was shot over the winter inside just using a reflector and window light with a black BG.

Lorna,

I like window light very much and it certainly worked well for you here. I also like the composition. For my tastes the The leaf tip over on the viewer's right adds interest. Beautiful work. No suggestions.

Lorna: I love the lighting and color. I'm kind of ambivalent about the leaf but the main subject is certainly terrific. Well done.>=))>

Striking colors and beautiful job with the reflector. I'm unsure about the leaf tip at LRC but on second thought the composition might seem too static without it. Nice job
