Abstract of seedhead

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted July 17, 201169 views8 comments

This is not a dandelion and I will be posting the full head as soon as my time limit on the flora gallery expires. No filters used but large amounts of saturation, contrast and sharpening were used here.

Large view provided.

As always I'd love to hear you comments and critiques.

Interesting to see a dandelion disclaimer, Charlie. Whatever it is, the four golden looking stars are very science-fiction looking. There is a beautiful interplay of shades of gold and brown in this image. Lovely work.

Steve, I hadn't thought of this as science-fiction looking, but I think you're right.

Charlie, I think this would be beautiful printed on metal.

Very cool image. I like the comp and the metallic gold tones with the brown bg.

This is really nice, Charlie, makes me think of fireworks.

I saw your post in flora (which was very nice) but this one is better. More mystery, more mood, a very appealling image
