For Flash of Red B&W theme this week focused on nature. It took a while to figure out how to photograph to show all six blooms. Unfortunately, Jim walked by with his iPhone far too ready - decided to post it for fun: https://365project.org/taffy/the-also-ran-ph/2020-02-02
Beautiful high key shot -Did get a kick out of Jim catching you in action! This one is really stunning with great textures showing and love the background.
@milaniet He actually is good about asking permission (we both have agreed to that) so it was fine. I cropped out my head though, to focus on the camera which I thought was better for many reasons!
Wow what an amazing capture of so many blooms! Never seen one with six before or not all out at the same time! Brilliant idea to take the shot from above! Love it!
Well worth getting this pov - great symmetry and high key execution , I love the gentle monotones and to me a dark background would be too stark and would spoil the whole effect ! fav
No, tried this with mine, but yours is much more upright! Mine leans over at a frightening angle and I haven't been able to capture all four flowers in a meaningful way, but at least I got three the other day! Lovely.
@rosiekerr@beryl Found your comment about the dark background interesting as I'd photographed it both ways. Will post the dark one tonight and curious to see what you think. I preferred the lighter background in the end.
