The Dance

by Albert Darmo

Gallery: FloraPosted April 11, 2013127 views10 comments
Nikon D600, 150mm, F/22, 1/6sec, ISO 320.

Looking at the sinuous stems and the flowing petals, I see dancers in their colorful costumes, dancing merrily. Comments appreciated.

An apt title. Good HK work, excellent arrangement, mimicking the joyful dancing quite well.

Beautifully done! I like this even better than the single flower!

I see another possible WP in your future, Albert. I like this one a lot. :toast: :jump:

I love the high key look Albert. The color of the blooms is great - and this really does look like a dance. Very, very pretty. I find it very hard to shoot these alstromeria - so I think this is great.

Lively well composed capture Albert. A "10" in my opinion.

What a great high key treatment, Albert. It lets the flowers sign as well as dance. :biggrin:

A lovely dance indeed, Albert ! This is so beautifully composed - the way the flowers are cut off works very well in this instance.

Stunning! What a graceful arrangement of brilliant blooms in fine detail against the high key. A wonderful work of art, Albert. :cool:

Beautiful flowers in a beautiful photo, Albert. I love this High-Key in back light that enhances the transparencies.
Take care.
