Here's the next in my series as I learn some of Harold Davis' techniques. Thanks for your previous comment on the pansies. I appreciate them all and know you deep down really love that rim of the bowl.

I'm still thinking and trying some alternate solution for the BG but nothing has caught my fancy as yet.
I generally don't like white BGs but in this case of the Pahl I think there is enough going on throughout the image that the white on white works. I purposefully left the infloresence in to provide an anchor.
I woud appreciate all your comments.

15 commentsI do like this high key image a lot. The definition of the white petals is great and the colors in the center of the blooms really shine in the sea of white.
Not sure about the stem though. Also there are dust specks near the RLC, center of left second and petal of left 3rd from top blooms which tend to pop in this almost totally white image.
The stem doesn't work for me. For my tastes, everything else is drop dead gorgeous. I love what you're doing with this technique.
