macro study series
I'm submitting this for the up close and personal contest. I like a lot of macro, so 'up close' isn't hard, but this one is personal, too... i hope it is liked...
I was looking through the entries to the close ups contest when I saw this picture. It made me think of one word: Elegant. This flower makes me think of spires in a beautiful old church or Arabian palace. The colors is so pure and the angle is great. I like the way it comes in from the right, because as a western reader, I see the tip first and take it in that way. This is a well composed and very friendly piece.
