Dark on dark...

I can barely remember a photography class back in the 70's on zoning technique... Shooting dark subjects on dark backgrounds and white subjects on white backgrounds, but that was when we still used film. Zoning still fascinates me today! In this shot, I still got details, but part of my subject did NOT disappear into the background like it's supposed to with the zoning technique. I'll keep trying to master it though. There has to be a way to achieve it with digital. =)

@missjenn Thank you! I wish I had achieved it at 100 percent. As it is - it's only half way there.

@danette Do you by chance have any wild lantana in your album? I know it grew wild in the orange groves around Orlando. Did they kill it all?
