Erotic Flower 3

I like what you're doing with this series. The soft/hard distinction is a nice way to go, as is the very soft light. You've got just enough of the flower for it to be evident yet much of the photo is in blur, abstracted, also a nice idea.

Things that occur to me to consider are the tonality and the overall depth. I'd like to see this a little richer, with some blacks, and I wonder if the blur can be handled in such a way as to achieve more sense of space and depth.

I'm no expert either on flower or macro shots, but I follow a couple of guys who I think are really good at it. Check out these two folders:

Hi Fred,

Thanks for the comment. I had fun with these images. I like that they are slightly abstract.

I agree with you regarding the depth and the tone. Sometime I forget the basics like having the extremes of the tonal range in the image as reference points. That can be improved.

Thanks again.

Any comments and ratings would be appreciated. This is one of a

series of images. Thanks for looking.
