In The Shadows

OK, three themes, combined.
Shadows and Minimalist plus B&W
I took the flowers in the shadows, cropped a bit more and converted to B&W then tweaked the contrast and brightness to still have the flowers standout but not so much. More a feeling of struggling to overcome the darkness in the shadows and shade. I also removed anything but solid black in the top 2/3 of the background. For those who didn't see the color post the flowers are a delicate pink and the leaves are a very dark green in heavy shade with the only small sunbeam hitting the flowers. Fully opened flowers are less than 1.5" and the whole cluster is about 2.5"
6D, 100-400L mk1 @ 250, 1/1000 @ f/8.0, ISO-1000 hand held at just under 5'

Great shot! You are getting very artsy on us, all in one shot. We old people cannot absorb all of this at one time, Bob (LOL)

Actually I played with art all the way back in the 60's.
I am now 75 years 11 days old and if I can handle it so can you.

Looks as though you posted this twice...
Photo Gallery and Closeups. A bit different audience in each with some overlap. I do it a lot and if it fits I will also do gallery and macro or Digital Artistry if it took a lot to produce the final product.
