Just an update.
I got the normals issue on the stem fixed (related to my post about "problem
with normals and stretched uv maps") and I've dropped using subsurface
scattering.
After putting in a drop shadow on the background I've been playing around
with the stem color and found, surprisingly, that I prefer the stems
non-transparent and colored after all. The saturated brown creates a nice
contrast to the gray shades and doesn't hog all the focus the way I had
thought.
I've attached both the top image at 100dpi and an image with the overall
composition of the 6 images.
I need to fix a few things still. One major question I haven't decided on
yet is - should the stems have some kind of leaves here and there...?

Oh, wow. This will be really cool if you actually render all 6 images, frame
them, and hang them on the wall in the right places.
The brown stems make me think the flowers are unhealthy.

That's the idea. :)

Oh that's not good. I suppose it does look a bit that way... But I need a
color that's in the brown/red/orange range of hues. I'll experiment a bit
more.

I love the overall composition, really well done.
Having been a professional welder, those welds look stunningly real.
I do have a little iffi about how the metal looks. If it's new it's more
shiny, if it's old it's looks more "gritty". The welds suggest it's
aluminum and then the surface should be a duller gray-ish gritty surface.
The flowers...DNTA (Do Not Touch Anymore) simply brilliant.
Not to sure about how the stems look.
Just one thing in the composition that bugs me is the free hanging piece of
metal in the lower left picture. All the others seem to sprout from the
bottom except for that one bit.

Excellent work indeed!
The brown of the stems is still a bit odd maybe... I don't know, perhaps a
tiny bit of green mixed to it will do the job?

The piece just apears to be free hanging. Look at the bottom right part: ther's
a piece that reatch under another. In the left part, it emerge from behind that
one, only with a highlight that make it fade in the bachground.

And please, make it available for others as well, either from zazzle or the
like or as POV source ;)

Okay, gotcha.
I obviously didn't see it that way. Maybe an idea to make that just a tad
more visible.

You know you've done a VERY nice job modeling the flower. The pistal and
stamen are dead on.
Leaves .... YES! (just a few)

Yeah, I'm considering the Zazzle option. :)
As for source code, I'll probably release certain macros that have helped me
create the image, but not the complete source.
