Tulip

Tried to rim light this after watching a webinar on flash photography. The flashgun has so many settings and defeated me (despite Him bringing me the very weighty handbook!)

In the DarkRoom this week, we're doing wabi sabi, celebrating the impermanence of and beauty in decay and nature. ( Damn!! Should have saved this for then!!) Anyway, do join in and tag darkroom-wabisabi

Absolutely superb. The colour, the light, the one fallen petal - gorgeousness!

I'm at a lost for words except FABULOUS and PERFECTION...I love the color of the bloom. Does this qualify as a "black" tulip?

[Susan Wakely]

Fabulous.

[Kathy]

Perhaps not the look that you were going for but the outcome is gorgeous.

[wendy frost]

Brilliant capture.

[Annie-Sue]

I'd have to look up rim light - but it's quite nice, whatever - has a weight to it

[Esther Rosenberg]

Stunning capture, beautiful light and composition.

[Shutterbug]

Those petals look like purple satin... Just glorious!
