Cut Flowers

I'm not sure about these images. The color looks nice, the BW looks nice. They all still seem to be lacking something. What do you think?

I like the big B&W. :thumbup:

3 and 4 have distracting elements in them.

Are 1 and 5 the same? 1 looks like the flash was a little too bright.

They're not too bad, but in 1 and 3 especially the flash seems to bright and harsh.

To me these feel like yet another example that shows that flower pics and on-camera flash don't go well together. It feels as if flowers would "want" to be photographed in natural light...

That said, the large black and white one looks ok... nothing too bright in there.
