Lovely shots, and the colors of that Erythronium are striking.

I'm not usually a fan of flower macros but these do stand out for me. Well done

How did you do those backgrounds? Very nice.

Very well done. I love the crisp detail and the soft background. Great colours. Great lighting. How much time did you spend setting up each shot?

These are exceptional! I, too, would be interested in your post-processing techniques.

Beautiful!

I'm assuming these are single exposures with a background consisting of bokeh 'painting' i.e. painting with light and glass?

Thanks everyone for comments
for tecnique : It 's very difficult for me in English. The photos are made in camera. There is nothing post-production,only levels and similar.
The shots are made through the grass. Grass should be a lot between lens and flower. It is essential to create an opening for the flower visible .
is the grass, sought specifically, between the lens and the flower that is so imprinted in the background
Of course maximum aperture for this shot !
