Centre stage

This is not the usual style of image for me… Camera club set topic for October is creative, so I'm trying some different things. These are tiny karo flowers and I have played with them to make one become 'centre stage'. Looking at it now, I maybe should have boosted the colour a little.

Lovely shot of the karo flower but is the the edge of the leaf under it .. ? I think you could do with out that..

[Dianne]

@julzmaioro Yes - the edge of the leaf is rather textured - I had had enough by the time I noticed how distracting it was!

[julia]

@dide Thought to start with it was a bit of carpet..

[Issi Bannerman]

The edge of the leaf is fascinating - such texture! A beautiful flower and super DOF.
