 Left over flowers from one of my wife's birthday gifts. Part of the "punishment" handed down from charliebaker for not "winning" the low scores challenge in the 48 hour free study.

I'm really not one to shoot flowers this should be interesting...

The processing and overall feel of this shot was / is inspired by one of my all time favorite photographers on this site, RKT. If she happens to see this shot I hope I'm doing her amazing work justice.

A very old papery texture. Old fashioned beauty.
