Its lit at an angle using a small lamp, it adds shadows in the wells, but it really brings up the highlights on the tips to add more feel to it.
Its taken using my 50mm prime, at an aperature of f1.8 which means that the dof is tiny, so the flowers only a few cm's back were pushed out of focus, but still retained their basic shape and colours.
It has then had the levels adjusted to add some more contrast, and push the murky areas to a black and to further bring out the highlights and the warm tones. Then sharpened and saved.
Hope thats some help to you.
