flowers is that the lighting is better when it's cloudy. Contrary to what most people think flowers look best when they are photographed in diffuse light. Cloud cover acts as a giant softbox studio, softbox and white umbrellas or studio photographers use are actually made to simulate an overcast sky.
In the photo with the direct sunlight, note the very dark shadows throughout the image. They interfere with the graphic design of flowers and almost rivals for attention. In the image of the shadow, there are still shadows, but they are softened and they add dimension without being intrusive.
There was a slight wind and I had to wait until the air is still, as I shot them. Wind is an enemy of macro photographers.
