Imposter

It is really cold in Cincinnati today and getting colder. I'm missing my garden. I think I will have to treat myself later and get some flowers for the house. So what is one to do with a macro lens that is missing colors and blooms? My incredible camera bag and tripod caddy brought this particular idea for a shot to me last night (how deep into 365 are we?) I think it looks the closest to a bloom as I can find right now. Give up? It is actually a lovely hand blown vase that we bought in West Virginia years ago that Tom is holding up to a light and I shot down into it. I like "Imposter" better.
Really great shot, Cathy! Love the abstractedness of it and the lighting and your focus. Just fabulous. Fav!

What a cool idea! And I see the 'bloom'! Beautiful imposter! Tomorrow's word for the January list is 'carnation', so we may just have to stop by the florist!

Goodness, it did turn out quite different to the actual vase, I expect! It looks a bit like curtains on a big stage!

I agree with @maggiemae . It does look like fabric! gorgeous tones and patterns, Cathy!

Very cool! Love the light shining through! I find that being without flowers forces us to be a bit more creative. Well done!

I love it when photography shows us something we could never normally see and this is what you have done here - great idea!
