I'd welcome some advice on these, I've done minimal editing using Lr3, cropping slightly on #1, and slight exposure increase in #2.

Actual date of photos November 2,2010

[edit] thanks for the advice.... Unfortunately #1 was taken this way, the slight crop was from the left side.
I did clone out the blurry background area as well as try to brighten the stamen.

#2 I cloned out the pot as suggested and tried to brighten up the stamen and sharpen the petals

stabeez I like the tight crop on #1 with the colour over the black. Very nice. My Christmas cactus blooms in spring when the days grow longer.

Jarvo Lovely shots, love the contrast white on black. If I were you I wouldn't have cropped so close to the right on #1, I'd like to see a tad more of the petal. On number 2, I'd try cloning out the edge of the pot - should be an easy task seeing as the rest of the background is all black.
