I was working on these to be part of something bigger but was rather taken with how they looked simply against a gradient background. What do you think?

Soft and beautiful!

[Diana]

They look gorgeous, I do find that there is a bit too much bright light on the right. It takes too much away from the lovely flowers.

@ludwigsdiana Thanks Diana, I wondered about that and toyed with cropping it out, but thought I like the balance of the white with the white flowers. Too hard:)

In my humble opinion, I like the bright area since the flowers are leaning into to it and then realizing then no, maybe reach up instead.

ooooh love it

[Rob Z]

It's great - the soft background and varying lighting really suits their textures and shapes.

I find the brightness on the right a bit off putting, I think it would look nicer with about a third of the right side cropped out.

Simply Beautiful.... Focus on the flowers is gorgeous...I feel a little less lighting (crop) on the right would benefit the flowers. Fav..

[Poppo Livy]

I think it looks pretty good but then again, I don't know what the something bigger was

[Dione Giorgio]

Fav. A great image. Merits framing and hanging in a prominent place.

[Peter Dulis]

nice

[Merrelyn]

I love the detail in the flowers but the bright white on the right draws my eye away from them.I was wondering about a square crop with just a hint of light grey to white at the corners to tie in with the white flowers.

This is beautiful.

I like the way you vignetted this. Shows off the lovely delicate flowers.

Gorgeous image & fantastic edit. Fav

[haskar]

Interesting effect. Love it.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Lovely

[Allison Maltese]

I agree with Diana's comments. I'd just crop a bit off the right, and the bottom to make a square format. Lovely treatment in any event.

Nice photo

[Shutterbug]

I think it couldn’t be improved one bit. Beautiful shot. Love the minimalism.
