Artist's Comments

Another square flower/plant macro from me, i really like taking these.

This one is also taken right outside my house, and as usual i have no idea what plant it is. i just search for something that suits shallow depth. I don`t wanted any super-sharp point here, cause it would ruin the atmosphere. so it is a gradual softer look due to F2,8 :heart:

Taken hand held in daylight, no flash. I love the light right after the sun has gone, and it is about to rain. meaning, the sun is behind the clouds, but still bright soft light.

Not center positioned the main subject totally here, i really like the "fluffy" things in the background.

Post processing: amazingly little here, usually im very picky, but most "sat" just right on this one.
B/W and duotone with lightroom, yellow/blue split in photoshop, with a mild red and purple to give it warmth.
Selective grain removal.

Hope you like it :aww:
