Portraits of flowers seem to be in style here right now. This is the first bud on a new rose bush we planted last year.

It is not a cutting....I have an non-reflecting black board I place behind flowers in the garden -- the result is somewhat like Alan's recent photos here.

Here's one other from several years ago.

I like your approach with the non-reflective black backdrop. This offers up nice isolation of the subject with a lot less dependence on the ambient light to get the same effect. Gorgeous rose buds in both shots. Can't wait to see the full blooms.

I also like your method with that non reflective black board. Great idea. And 2 really cool looking flowers!
