    Gerbera! I like them both but would maybe not have so much white space?
    I like the first one and could see the two of them in one frame like a reflection.

    I like them in the sense i could see a use for them

    some florist using them as cards for the flowers they deliver

    Completely agree with Steve-

    Nicely designed shots,
    almost like you were shooting to a brief-

    lovely lighting and detail too-
    though maybe more Mother’s Day than Father’s Day-

    No, I’m more your traditional Steam Loco, or E-Type, or scrambler man myself-
    Although I suppose flowers would be just as inappropriate-

    Two very nice shots, certainly have a commercial feel to them alright as Steve suggested. Nice idea and very well excuted!
    I got series four of “24” and a box of After Eights for fathers day, don’t know how he afforded them, he’s only 4 1/2 years old!

    My 2 1/2 year got me a sunglasses holder and some non slip thing for the dash. I wish my wife would stop telling him to get me car stuff..

    I like the images here, but on the first one the white is not completely white. There are 2 sections where is is ‘blown’ white and then some graduations to grey. I would use the Dodge tool set at 5% on Highlights to burn the BG to white, without affecting the flower. There is a commercial feel to these (as mentioned by others) and from that point I feel these are strong images.

    Very nice, very sharp and colourful.
    Should look wonderful in print…

    I love the first one – a sharp photo, and love that frame! Perfect for cards etc.
