Not big into flower shots, so the first photo doesnt really do it for me, even tho a great photo.
However I really like the second and is a very creative approach on the subject. Works very well with concept. Nicely done.

Cheers.

Nat, they both works for me in their own way. I think that your choice of composition and the lighting is quite terrific in the first one. I'd simply play with WB to cool down the light.
As for the second one, the approach is creative as PlantedTao said, I like it!
