All fantastic - like the first the best - how do you get a background so purely black?

I am going for #1 and #4 because we can see all the flower. I prefer #7 to both because of the acute detail when we see part of the flower.

Absolutely stunning! I think 2 is my favourite, I like the angle and the space to the right of the flower.

Thank you for your comments, much appreciated.

Superb set - if I had to choose No3 has the edge.

Aother excellent ser Barry - can't decide between #4, #6 & #7. Every time I look, I change my mind :shrug:

These shots are really inspiring! I've just read your thread about the home made light box and you've given me the solution I was just mulling over. Perfect timing for my D200 arriving tomorrow!

Any more useful tips for someone wanting to get into flowers and closeup?

Beautful pictures. They've made me even more eager for my camera to come!
