Great go at still life.

To me, the colours seem a little weak - have you desaturated at all? I'd prefer some vibrant colour, but that's just my personal preference.

I also feel that I'm losing some of the detail in the sprays(?) of tiny flowers, being white on white. I wonder what a pale pastel background would have looked like. I'd also straighten it up a little, looks to me as if it's leaning slightly to the left.

Hmm... Looking again, I think the muted colours are growing on me...

Thanks for posting.

So much has changed in our photo-world, and yet basically nothing's changed - It's still the pictures that really matter. David Noton

Thanks for the comments Mark. This is the great thing about posting and getting comments, others see the things I have not. I agree and with you.

Thanks for your help.

Here is an additional photo that I have tried to liven up a little.
