Daffodil still life

I think this is still in progress... I haven't decided yet.

It's a white daffodil. I used blue in the shadow areas of the flower and I think it might be a bit too blue. Also, if I had my time back, I would have positioned the flower slightly facing right. It was straight on which made it difficult to illustrate the depth of the centre of the flower.

I like the overall high contrast though. The background looks pitch black in this image but it's more of a deep blue (I mixed red and blue).
