The second was my guess before I clicked open the comments section. I wasn’t completely sure though, because I think I miss these sort of details sometimes.
You are right. You are the only one to answer. The subtle clue is that there is less contrast and the light on the flower is a little softer. I darkened the background in Lightroom in #2 to match #1. When using a parasol the back lighting can get overblown. It helps to soften the light on a flower on a very bright day.

It is subtle. Good job 🙂
Both are beautiful. I like the glow of the second one. Great technique…will have to give it a try one day.
Thanks. It is s great way to soften the shadows.
I had no idea but like the softness of the second. It’s beautiful 🙂 🙂
Using a shade in strong sun makes people look good too.
Guessed the right one! Nice result. 😊
Great. Thanks for dropping by.
I went for 2nd, too.
Good on you. See why in response to Mary.
That must be why I like the second one best! Lovely!
Thank you. I used a pink umbrella.
The 2nd. Very nice shot!
