Didn't see the first version so can't comment on whether this is an improvement, but I like it. :) Good background and lighting and unusual idea. niamh.

Better than the first version!

This has a dark-satirical cuteness to it...really fits the theme well. This version is much better than the all-black background version. Thumbs up.

Well done and well titled. You've left just a hint of background detail, which adds to the photo. The softness of the upper left leaf seems overdone, seems to stand out too much. The composition is well balanced. Excellent.

Thanks for the comments, I've been looking at this picture for a couple of days now and I feel there's something missing in it. I'll try to reveal a little bit of the background at the bottom and and not have it all solid black.

Yes, the floating object fits nicely, but IMHO the overall result will be better if some surface and a shadow are visible under the vase, both slightly alluded.

Nice image, expessing the theme well. I'm not normally a bit fan of "floating" object, but I have to say it works very well here.
