 My first attempt at a low key image. I wasn't sure whether i would be scored down for it being a colour image and not a B&W.
Picture was taken in my blacked out home cinema room to get the black background.

I think this would be much more effective if it was underexposed a little.

The composition is perfect and the shot is obviously well planned but isn't it a little overexposed? The red looks washed out a bit. Still a good low key photograph.

Nice composition, a few blown highlights on the edges of the petals and the colors look a little dull, IMHO.

maybe it's my monitor but i might have played with the saturation of the red, or maybe not... nice shot, well done!
