Thank you all for your comments and favs they are all much appreciated.
Please forgive the sparseness of comments for a day or two, I will be looking at all your uploads but have just got back from having my carpel tunnel wrist op and it's a bit sore!!
I like the dark background you have found, it really helps to make the flowers stand out. I keep having a mass of more pink. Thanks for the inspiration. This is such a great site. I struggle with something then see how others have managed to achieve a great picture.
