i definitely prefer the image without the light in the picture... looks more real, doesnt show that you placed a desk lamp there to light the flower.

:iagree:

i think i like the 2nd one, something about the light intrigues me, that fact it was intentionally in the pic could suggest more emotion? But the flower alone is ok and would get more use as like a stock photo or something.

#3 is the best out of all of them. The black&whites need to go. Doesn't do that wet plastic flower any justice. ;)

#3 in color looks very nice. Its too bad you couldnt use a real flower, I bet it would look even better.

I like number two i like the effect of the light in the pic.
