just put a vignette to darken the outer edge, otherwise natural light
also increased contrast a bit...... as with the second one same vignette and also put some gaussian blur in the same location as the vignette and a bit more contrast and playing around with curves and sharpening

Was that a natural effect, or did you edit it in?

The softness on the first shot I find distracting, but I like the light and how it highlights the tips.
The second shot is pretty cool, the shape is great, and I really like the darker colours in the background as well .... Skippy

It's also a nice change of pace to see a flower that isn't some bright... umm.. flowery color.
