Since I got a lot of comments about this lily and the framing I did here I thought I would try another version. I had already done the work selecting the lily for the out of bounds effect on the first one. Let me know which you prefer if you'd like.

Excellent! You know I'm a fan of black backings.

I know you'll get many opinions, but I prefer the OOB version. It has something extra that sets it off. The shot is beautiful to start, so either version is quite fine.

"If I dream I shall be real, or really myself..." Robert Penn Warren
Just as beautiful. I couldnt pick between them when it comes to image quality but i really like the first one because it was original. The framing was imaginative and as a person who usualy doesnt like anything else in the frame of the image except her subject i surprised myself at how taken i was with it. I think its really difficult to digitally enhace a photo which is pretty perfect anyway but you certainly did it with the framing. Excellent work on both counts. Still a fan of yours Hilda :)

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom i trust". Psalm 91: 1 and 2
I have to confess that I'm a BIG fan of the OOBs treatment. I liked the way it enhanced the flower.
You captured a good one, and I'm sure there will be mixed opinions, but the flower can't be denied.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
This is great, but I am already on paper as really liking the framed version. Difficult choice, but I am sticking with my first statement... more to look at.

Elegant and beautiful Hilda! ...what a wonderful light on the flower - I love the contrast with the black background!

Hilda, I do like both very much. I will choose the first one just because it took more effort and was more creative.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life, and my love for music and photography.
I like them both enormously but this one diplays all her beauty without distraction.It glows like a flame :)

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
I went back and looked at the other, and I think I do I like this one more than the other. The image is so beautiful, and the lighting just glows, the frame distracted a bit now that I compare the two. Nice shot, fav'd!

This is simply stunning. Nothing to distract from the beauty of the shot you captured. Absolutely fabulous...my favourite of the two.

gorgeous... I loved the original framing but this is wonderful too! I'm sure you get mixed messages about the framing but I love them both. I think the original was definitely a winner and this is too! :-D Beautiful!

~ I like both for different reasons, lol. The first shows off well not only because of the flower, but your creative OOB. This one the attention is really only on the glow of the light on the lovely flower. Both are great Hilda!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
I think I prefer the framed version. But this is bursting with colour and sophistication all the same!

Great close-up the light and shadows through the pedals are nice and the colors are amazing.

Love the back lighting on this shot. For some reason back lighting does not get good marks on this site, but I think it makes for stunning shots. I prefer this one by the way.
