Little Straw Flower II

Comment by krnodil:
I had taken pictures of these flowers last month - and while the flowers are striking and pretty, taking them "sharp" made them seem almost harsh - like they would cut you if you touched them. This softening shot you have here is very nice - retains all that lovely patterning of blood red and cream colors, but makes the bud seem very inviting.

I like this shot. The curtain on the right seems to take on the shape of a person while the left reminds me of a flag. Nicely done.

I like the lines and shapes that are created with the shadows. Perfect for black & white.

Comment by Jedusi:
This is a great shot and the quality of your current camera helps bring out all that you were after in your previous shot.

Again - very elegant. a delightful simplicity that would take enlarging and printing out really well.

I think this has wonderfully elegant lines to it.

I could see it as a large poster on someones wall.

Although I prefer Dutch tulips :-) this is really a very nice shot. Sharp, nice contrasts, good composition. Thanks for sharing your processing story.

Well leaving the house usually works, haha. I do the same thing, I am going to try and make myself get out more to take pics. I kind of like the shot, the shadows and lines are pretty cool. I think you did a good job!
