Yellow Roses

Playing around with lighting… Comments appreciated

Is a very nice bouquet with roses and contrast nicely with those tiny white flowers, also the vase has a nice well fitting shape for this composition.Concerning the light(that by the way me too I use it to have the image as my mind think to be)I think that roughly 25%from what you did brighter would be better lower,dodge tool for darker part sometime makes the petals to look faded.So my humble opinion is that is ok with light but a bit less than this viewer feeling would be more delight by this splendid bouquet.I hope my opinion did not bather you,is just how I think and facts that happen to me too in time I work a similar photo.

all the best and good light for more photos to be

Very appealing technique with lighting and processing but for me the highlights on the vase seem to "wrestle" attention away from the flowers. Must my opinion.

Radu and Craig.. thanks for your input. i will also play around a bit with the lighting and processing. Mark
