photoblog image Snow Flowers

Snow Flowers

Macro shot of dried flower filled with snow a big bunch of crystals .


TECH-INFO: Some dodging and burning done. The borders are darkened, the flower is a bit brighter. Slight contrast enhancement using the curves. The 35mm equivalence is 114mm for the focal length.


News: yesterday I got a sad email that JPG Magazine stop on the 5th of January. Despites I didn't contribute so much, I really liked to browse it because there were so many cool pictures to see. See here to read the news.

Spectacular! You found original structure build by the nature. The color of the background produces a nice bouquet. Happy New Year and I wish to you a lot of exceptional photos.

Great shot and bokeh, light could be a bit better, but that's winter sad
LightningPaul: Indeed, but the background, especially the border, are made a bit darker, to let the flower stand out more. Thanks for your visit.
Great shot!
LightningPaul: Many thanks for your comment!
The simplicity in this is striking and what is so beautiful.
