Before I began "rediscovering myself through photography" about two years ago, I probably wouldn't have thought much of choosing a dried-up flower as a subject. But yesterday, I did. It had been an unsuccessful drive to find beautiful waterfowl, so I zoomed in on some of my own flowers---those over-photographed blooms that are slipping into fall. A dried-up African daisy looks pretty good through a telephoto lens!
(I edited the image with a new application called RadLab, and this is called "Rusty Cage.")
I'm choosing this image for my P52 Challenge, as well. Week 36 of P52 in Darcy's Photo Challenge.

This is incredible Evelyn, and isn't is amazing how beautiful flowers can be when they are past their prime?? As my kids say, "Mom's out taking pictures of dead flowers and condemned buildings again!"
Really gorgeous work on this one!

Really lovely Evelyn! Love the desaturated tones and the softness. I have photographed dried flowers too, they speak a language of their own.
