burning

This is a flower, lit from the backside. Comments and critiques are

welcome, thanks for your time! Stanislav

Fascinating image, very clever use of light - love the way the light filters through each petal and layer. The particular framing of the shot leaves me a little unsatisfied - I'm not sure what to make of it, what you're trying to get across - but, technically, I think it's great. Very interesting approach. What was your inspiration?

Thanks for posting -

everybody- thanks for the comments!

Lance- the frame is black and transparent, but on the black background it is invisible. I tried other framings, but this is the one I liked most.

When I made the picture it was dark outside and only the lamp was shining through the flower, it looked almost like it was burning, much more intense than on this picture. Unfortunately I did not shoot in RAW back than, so there was not much I could do about it.
