I use a vase with a bulb inside. No other light source was used. I need to put some paper inside the vase to limit the light comming to the camera. I exposed for the flower.

I wish there was a bit more light on the butterfly so he wouldn't almost get lost in the shadows.

Very nice. I love the blue glow of the vase coupled with the flower and the very subtle butterfly.
For me I would prefer a little more off centre framing of the vase but that won't imapact my score here as that is just personal opinion.

The light in/on the vase is great, but a bit overblown on the under part of the flower. The moth is intriguing if a bit dark

Another minimalist image that is wonderful - very graceful and ethereal in concept and execution.
