Chrissy planted the yellow callas so I have to shoot them outdoors now. Kind of liked this downward view. All comments welcome.>=))>

Great POV, Bill! I really like this downward look into the flower and the artistic swirl of those curves. Very nice and artistic comp in the frame too. I kind of wish that top point of the flower was more in focus but that may have not been possible. Irregardless this is a lovely image of a lovely flower.

Bill:

Callas are such a joy to photograph. The shape and lines are almost sensuous. I like this POV and the lines of the petal edge. The tip of the spadix looks a little hot.

I like the perspective here, Bill, which emphasizes the downward spiral. Nicely composed, and I like the soft bg.

I think this is my favorite of your recent Calla shots...I really like the comp & the golden tones in this one!
