    No, I love it! Sometimes drama is good. ;) This whole series is really nice. You nailed the lighting. This is using your new diffuser, right? Posted 3 years ago

The black background complements the red, orange and yellow and makes the plant pop out of the picture. Very nice. Posted 3 years ago
