I have a few additional shots, but
all taken at the same patch. Are
rather stunted and difficult to separate from their background.
Will locate more a bit later.

IO should have said "quite nice" or "very nice."


To eliminate a distracting background, I have been using the Quick
Selection Tool in PhotoShop to select the flower.  Then I use the
"Inverse" function under the selection pull-down to reverse it so only
the background is selected.  Then I use the Burn Tool to darken the
background until nothing remains.  If there is a stubborn spot or two,
the Clone Stamp Tool or the Spot Healing Brush will help eliminate
them more quickly.

That 'electric glow' looks like a background you didn't quite darken.
I'm no photoshop expert, but isn't there a way to lasso the flowers themselves
