These are both Columbine - a beautiful shade plant with a history of both heirloom gardening and fairies. They hang down like bells with point on top. These were both in fairly dense shade in the woods.

Beauty the second one
Like the first, but love the second, Ruth. I like the stage lighting, with the dark background. You do these well.
I like the compositions, and the choice to shoot a more profile perspective.
This is just a preference thing, but I'm not so big on the super dark background with the bright flower, because I can see a lot of haloing.
Nice work.
Hmmm. I meant to leave some green around the flowers BUT more than would look like haloing. I have to figure out this monitor. I think it is brighter than most. I am guessing when I go to work tomorrow and open this up, it may look darker than it does at home. Do you happen to see the barest silhouette of a second flower in the first one?
On my computer (super bright screen) I could more or less see everything in the background, but it was dark. On my phone (dark screen), the flowers appear to be on a black background, which I actually quite like, as it looks like a rather artistic choice. Which one were you going for?
I have a similar problem with my images, in terms of editing. They look good and well balanced on my pc, but when I get them on my phone they tend to look dark and grungy (especially at night, when my phone switches to night screen mode).
I was going for a black ground with enough 'glow' around them to give the illusion of depth. I find many black background to be very 2 dimensional.
I really appreciate your feedback Jordan!
