A hideously long-winded edit. Not like one of mine but I am fond of the end result. I suspect some might find it corny but with the outlets of Edward Weston and Fine Arts to shoot for, I was quite happy to get a flower shot out there by way of a little parallel self indulgence.

Nice textural HDR feel, with very good lighting to add drama, I do find the petals blend too well with the floor, while the stems contrast strongly and lead the eye off the page.
