Yet another rose (you all must be sick of them :p)

My girlfriend gave me a rose (totally ignoring our pact of "not doing anything for Valentine's day" - boy did I walk right into that...)

Anyway, lovely subjects for photography. I was thorn between macro and still life, but decided on the latter. I'm glad I took some extra time for lighting. If you guys want a setup shot, let me know and I'll grab them of my CF card tonight.

#1 - I love a kicker light on flowers but it takes so freakin long to setup properly...

Nice and sharp rose. The tint looks a bit warmish though. May be its my cheapo work monitor.
Third photo is nice but not sure about the crop.
Love to see the set up when you get a chance.

Thanks for the comment, and no it's probably not your work monitor, while I was processing them I decided this was one of those times where I chose to override my common sense to set the correct white balance and I warmed it up by like 800k. The reds just didn't look "romantic" enough with the correct white balance
The first one is close to correct though. On second look (and on another monitor), I might fine-tune the second one a bit.
I'll post a setup tonight

Took a bit longer because I was shooting lillies ^^

Here's the setup shot of #1:
