Cut the flower. Hold the flower to the sky. Take the picture. I actually had to take approximately 30 shots to get it right. Cropped a little bit; unsharp masked it a bit too ... unfortunately got a bit of halo effect around the stem and the picture's edge. That's it. Hope I average over 5.

The sky really adds power to the flower.

Nice colours, simple image. I'd like the flower head to be slightly higher up in the frame personally.

very nice. I think this week you need your negative space a bit more pronounced though.

Classic example of this theme - love the colors, exposure, composition, focus! I was at a photography presentation recently where the professional photographer speaker showed several photos of this theme - not one of them had the Wow factor that I think yours does. Nice work!

Great composition and clearly excellent use of negative space.

Beautiful, crisp, clearly focused, perfect saturation. ONe of my favorites. Reminds me of a crisp Autumn day in New York State. Meets the challenge too. Well done! Good luck in the challenge. Grayce aka Gracious
