More Enviromental Macros

One of the things I wanted to push myself to look for when I was shooting on Saturday (aside from flowers with good but diffuse light and interesting backgrounds), was to take more shots that use the environment around the flower as part of the image instead of just trying for a clean portrait. I think this is a much harder way for me to shoot, and I can't say that I had a lot of shots I loved out of the ones I tried, but I had some I liked:

and at least one that I did love:
