morning glory

The bookclub readings this week covered a lot of information, particularly on how light affects the tone of an image. Moving around the flowers this morning I tried front, side, and back light in trying to bring out the beauty of the morning glories. I liked how the backlight of the sun brought a cloudy white softness to the center of this petal and accented the curves of the flower.
