Nicely done, Jos!
I like the lighting on these -- the blooms and stems look like they're lit from within.

Very nice shot. Great exposure and sharpness. Reminds me of blue tunicates in the Caribbean.

A gorgeous specimen. Stands out so well against the dark BG. Colors are quite nice too!

Cool shot! Love the lighting. Could you give some info on the lighting used on the flower?

Thanks for your comments everyone.

Mark, the flower was placed at the window so there was some sight and back-lighting. I used a LiteDisc reflector that I placed flat on the table under the flower to lighten-up the shadows.

I agree, the soft lighting and black bg really make this one pop
