I like your second image better, with the white background. The concept is interesting, and I think it may work more if the stem was bent. The technical aspect is wonderful, very subtle. I wonder how it may look if the background was a little darker or, the petals were a little darker?? just a thought, it is a wonderful image.
Sharon,
I like the first one better. Offers a feeling of not being fixable. Of course if you want it to be fixed the second would be better. Probably has to do with contrast.

Hi Sharon,
I can't choose between them! They both have a great subtle feel to them with great exposure.
Thank you Nigel, Tim and Pierre.
It seems like the vote is pretty evenly split.....I may have to keep them both! lol
Appreciate your comments.
Well done Sharon #2 i like the best y ou have a great eye and very creative.
Thank you Jack.
I also have hayfever ...unfortunately!![]()
Second for me as well, quite nice really.
Sharon I like the first one. Very much sets the mood of being broken (when I look at it I see and feel a broken heart) The second one is very nice also, it give me the mood of peace, being hopeful. I guess it is going to depend on what story you want you photo to tell!! As always you never cease to impress me!!

I will have to go with #1, but then I have always preferred color over B&W, I just wonder what the effect would be with a darker background.
Thank you Randy.
Next bloom ( same plant) I plan a deep grey / blue background for so we shall see!![]()
