Douglas,
First, I quite like the dragonfly wings. The wing 2 version is stronger as
the tip of the wing is not lost in the black background. Keep up the flower
series with the white background, it is very good work. However, the rose on
the black background is a stronger image than the one on the white
background. Who knows, another project, working out lighting for a
dark/black background floral series.
