Here's another one of these I took back at the same time as the other ones. I did not like it much initially because it did not have the squint factor like my other dark images...in fact I thought it was too bright:)

Comments & criticisms welcome!

This one does not have the grace and form as Unruly Blooms, Eirini, but it is a good addition to your series of dark studio images. I don't find the image too bright overall, but you could tone down the lighting on the left stem so they aren't getting all of the attention.

A simple and subtle image. I agree with Scott's assessment. A good addition to your other darker, more squinty images!

Eirini:
Normally the red really pops with a bg but I do not see it here. May be you need to boost the red a little. Would consider cloning out the tip of the bud between the 2 stalks along the lower edge.

The tones and detail in the stems and flowers, and the colour look fine to me, Eirini. They really are most characterful flowers !
