Flowers, I do love them, just don't buy me them. I'd rather see plant life growing in its natural state, in the earth. Above shows some great depth of field and again I wasn't even trying. We have these flowers that grow every year in the back yard and I just love them. The colour is perfect, in fact it is close to my favourite colour, indigo.
I think I found the next shot above downtown in some random garden. They were so beautiful and in the best placement that I had to get the shot. Flowers create a sight of happiness in my world, however, if you edit them in black and white I see darkness and depression. The one thing I have trouble wrapping my mind around are that names of the flowers, I never remember. So I just point and say that these flowers right here are pretty and move on. What's funny I that I never like to wear much colourful clothing, but I love to look at colour in everything else, to help cheer up my day. And if winter happens, the corner store has flowers that are absolutely wonderful all year round, so I go there.
Then I have moments where I try to make a normal shot look abstract. With the one above the sun was out and shining, yet somehow I was able to make this happen. The glowing tulip. In a sense darklight comes into play here. You have the light from the flower itself and the darkness that surrounds it, which means that no matter what there is still hope in anything you do.
I must have been having a bad day when I took and edited this one here. You can see the happiness in the background, but I didn't see it that way. I seen the gloomy world around it. However the gloomy, in a sense, brought out the beauty in the plant and therefore my day.
