Description

the only thing editted are colors and noise.

to take this shot i've put arround a flower pot a black sheet of papper (100x70cm) and set the camera on a tripod and the exposer time to 8s. next i've eluminated the flower with a low battery torchlight (so that the light wasn't to strong) mainly in the middle, wile taking the shot.

@ Elite moserArtist: thanks :)...i didn't go for a square presentation so that the main flower wouldn't be in the middle... also i had to make a 20x30cm print of it :p

Beautiful photograph. I agree with moserArtist, that for presentation here/above, you should consider a square presentation -- just a suggestion. Nice lighting.

Black brings out the flowers, and I love how they fade into the darkness...

Beautiful work Alin. One of my favorites of yours. I agree with Patrick and Trevor about the crop for presentation here on GFX, but you still have my +10
Great job!

I like the subtle colors and soft lighting. The black background works very well.

Very nicely set up, the colours are a little too subtle for me, but only a little.
Focus and dof are OK, but maybe experimenting with the DOF a bit could yield interesting results.
Still, well done.

Nice flowers! Beautiful composition!

i think this is really beautiful. love the colors, love how fragile the flowers look, coming out from the dark. the only thing that bothers me is the composition. there's too much black on the right side. it could've worked if there were hints and silhouettes of flowers leading into that direction, but it seems like the space isn't used by anything

it never occurs to me that pink and purple could work so well with black (or dark), the atmosphere of this pic is very placid and soothing, me like it! =D

Good shot !! I would have still preferred to have the fading of flowers at the edge rather smoothly... ! Still a gr8 idea. Composition could be more space at the top & less at the left...
Ofcourse the shot itself is still quite good alin !!

This is remarkably beautiful. Soft light in the center that fades gently to the edges. Love it.

excellent pic, color and lighting are great, ad your signature or name to the lower rigth corner to bring some balance to the composition.
