hi everyone,

this is another unusual presentation from me, just trying to bring some different works. hope you enjoy this one.

Sony NEX-5N
Sony 18-55mm
ISO 100

Double process from the same RAW file, the other processing done by CS3 for the contrast,level,some shadow adjustment & cloning .

all the comments are welcome

thanks in advance

Hamed

This is an interesting juxtaposition, the flower and the desert. I would not normally expect to see a flower in the desert. But very nice color and composition. Fine image as always.

Wow, one exposure! The comp is really nice. Those look like milkweed in the foreground, but I'm assuming that must be wrong.

Cool! Some fabulous color contrasts here, i especially like the touch of purple. One minor nit: since the bottom of the plant isn't visible, it loses some of its connection to the landscape behind. But i love the moment you caught here! :toast:

Wow! Other than the slight blow out (and I can live w that) near the sun this kills!

Hamed, I like this a lot! The contrast between life & lifelessness as well as the colors make this a very unique image.
