Thank you both for your comments... I will try this again with more DOF so that the texture of the petal comes through. The scan is a bit soft, but I had originally softened up the surface to bring more detail to the base.
I've noticed with the close-up lenses the DOF is very tricky.
Thank you again...

I agree with Sai, the scan looks a little soft. Otherwise I like this very much! The color is great. The water droplets really shine!

Also, did you mean to purposefully blur out the petal surface?
It would be nice if you could capture some texture on the petals and get the water droplets a lil more defined..
Are you using closeup lenses? they may be limiting your DOF more than you intent to

Hello Kim,
The scan looks a lil soft to me..
Thats an interesting view of the tulip..
Personally, I would have preferred if the droplets on the stem were in sharp focus..and the shadows below the stem were less harsh
just a thought..
I havent done floral shots, so please take my opinion with a grain of salt

Actually I think I am not qualified to critique pics like this - I have not much studio lighting experience - but I think this looks good. Maybe - and that is 'maybe' - the rear leaves (like the one visible at the left edge) could be somewhat darker to accentuate the round shape of the flower.
