This face is not white by maggiemae
Photo 534

This face is not white

Its a gazania so it is actually a very bright yellow. However, using the B&W function you can see the form of the petals so much better. Really nicer, viewed large.

Three good things:
1. Masterchef NZ final on
2. Good fare got for a July Auckland visit
3. John trimmed a huge bush before the rain started

This works so well in B&W and I'm not sure how you did it but you've managed a kind of ethereal fade out towards the edge.

They are lovely flowers as they grow anywhere and don't need much love and attention, and the detail on them is rather nice.
