desperate measures

yeah... a flower... it was lying around the house (valentines' day 'an all)... for week 7 of the 52 dogwood challenge... fill the frame with your subject, no background... guess you'll have to trust me on this as i kinda burned out the edges ;p

in case you're wondering, it's a white rose, converted to black and white in silver fx and then inverted in photoshop...

(repost to fix some dust spots and tighter crop)

Coll low key, with the curves highlighted in the shadows.

Love the dreamy edit.
Does this qualify as an emergency flower shot? ;)

[K1W1]

A great fit for the artist challenge. I love the low key dreaminess of it

Very nice macro - it certainly does fill the frame.

@humphreyhippo i suppose... i think mostly i do emergency chess shots ;p

thanks @kali66 !

you have taken the femininity out of the flower by reducing it to shape and form with your processing. Cool result.

I think this week there are many flowers lying around
