The common name of the Toad Lily (Tricyrtis formosana) is spooky. I created the web effects and dramatic lighting in Photoshop.

Gorgeous color in these delicate flowers – the dark background really sets them off beautifully.

How did you get the beautiful lighting effect on the toad lily?

  The original had light on the flowers and to emphasize it I darkened the background with a vignette and a dark Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer, painting in some extra dark in places in Photoshop.
