The red begonias are very translucent and show transparencies when back lit.

A lovely, delicate spread of begonia fingers, Gigi. The high key treatment works beautifully here.

They do look like they're dancing. Two of them even look like a couple holding hands! I like the beautiful delcate colors and shapes of the petals. Very nicely done!

Very delicate feel to the image Gigi. Nice composition of a difficult subject. I also like the slightly blue background which accentuates the color of the flowers very well. Beautiful image!

This works really well with the high key treatment. Great placement of the stems and blooms in the frame. Has a very delicate feel to it.

I thought I'd commented on this, Gigi. The high key treatment works really well and you've got great details in the flowers and the stems. The flowers do look like they're have fun.
