 Since I'm not so good at backlit, water sprayed flowers, I thought I'd go for personification. Last time I tried this, it didn't work, so we'll see what happens.

I had to smash and smush the flower. I'm sorry!

Basically lit with a dive light

Great symbolism here, very much supported by the excellent composition. The colors seem slightly over-saturated, but still believable. I want to feel sorrow, but the bright vibrant colors are not letting me.

nice job here. I get the feeling that the yellow and red flowers are shouting down at the white one and it's crumbling under the pressure... :)
