Desperate Times Call for Desperate Measures

This has always been the hardest time of year for me to find new things to shoot - so guess it's time to reinvent the wheel. Came up with this accidentally and liked it.

Love this! wow! the flower stem outside the frame (or however I should say that) is brilliant! big fav

[Milanie]

@skskunky This worked out by accident. I shot the sunflower today but the sky was blah. So I was trying to change skies with another sky I had shot a few days ago. It kept coming out with the white around the edges rather than filling the whole frame - finally decided I liked it that way!

"Desperate times"... they do have an inspirational effect, don't they. This turned out so neat, Milanie. There's a 3D feel to this image with the sunflower 'in front' of the photo. I like! Fav.
