Something new for me anyways - thought I'd see if I could get anything respectable with the Orton method.

The first one is really nice. You should think about putting a vignette or something on it to even focus more on the flower.

Great technique with this image... really makes it stand out.

Although I have to agree with BitterSweet... a vignette would really be the icing on the cake

I do like it, but I get a feel that the flower isn't sharp enough O.o

I also agree with the vignette
